    Is there a way with the RadInput textbox control to allow for users to toggle the editing and displaying of a value? What I mean is, on the load of the page, text is displayed. When the user clicks on the text, it becomes editable (i.e. text displayed within the RadInput textbox). Save and Cancel buttons are also displayed when the "edit mode" is toggled on.

    Flickr does this, for example, with the naming of their photos and with descriptions.

    Hello Brendan,

    RadInput do not support exactly this functionality, but there is a similar solution:

    .RadInput .riEnabled,
    .RadInput .riHover,
    .RadInput .riEmpty
    {
        border:0 none !important;
        padding-top:3px !important;
        padding-left:2px !important;
        cursor:pointer;
    }
     
    .RadInput .riHover
    {
        background-color:#ffffd3 !important;   
    }
    <telerik:RadTextBox EmptyMessage="Enter Your Text" AutoPostBack="true" Height="20px" runat="server"></telerik:RadTextBox>


    Of course there is a classic way to do this, with hidden RadTextBox and button. Then show/hide them on click or other event.
