RadEditor inside EditItem template not updating Content

[Marco]

Hi, 

   I Have a RadEditor inside a RadGrid ItemTemplate like this:

 <EditItemTemplate>
              <telerik:RadEditor ID="descriptionEditor" Runat="server" EditModes="Design" Font-Size="X-Small" Height="300px" Skin="Sunset" Width="100%" Html='<%# Bind("description") %>' Font-Names="Segoe UI,Arial,sans-serif" >


   But when i change the content while "editing", later in codebehind UpdateCommand event, i get the previous value of "desciption" and not the update one (see the codebehind below: If description is "aaa", and i edit to "bbb", the variable newdescription in the event is still "aaa".

 protected void grid_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
        { 
            if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.UpdateCommandName)
            {
                GridEditFormItem item = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
                if (e.Item is GridEditFormItem)
                {
                    RadEditor descriptionEditor = (RadEditor)item.FindControl("descriptionEditor");


                    string newDescription = descriptionEditor.GetHtml(EditorStripHtmlOptions.None);
                    onProgressReportGrid.Rebind();


                }
            }
        }

Can you help me, please ?
Kind regards

Hi,

RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX does not have a Html='<%# Bind("description") %> property. You should use the Content property instead of Html as explained in this article: Edit Template In Grid.

My suggestion is to also review the code of the following Datagrid Edit Template demo as well as this KB article on the subject: RadEditor Content Not Saved After Ajax Update in Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari.
