RadNumericTextBox Validation in RadGrid

[Tiffany]

Hello,

I'd downloaded the sample code of Iana posted on June 10 from http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/window/window-as-dialog-return-value-in-radgrid-edit-form-template.aspx.  I was able to post back and update the value in the RadNumericTextBox inside the RadGrid control.  However, when I click the Save button on the Insert command, the Required Field validator of the RadNumericTextBox is always failed eventhough the value is set (via set_value method on client side).  I need to make sure the value in the RadNumericTextBox is not empty and is greater than 0. Does any body have experienced this issue as I have?  When I used a regular asp.net textbox, the validator is working fine, but it would be nice if I can use the RadNumbericTextBox in the radgrid in my application.  Could you please tell me what is causing the validator failed here?  Thanks!

Below is my client side code.   I am using RadControls Q1 2009 version.

function ShowUpdateQuantityWin(quantityTxtBxId, nbrPersTextBxId, quantityList) {  
                window.radopen("UpdateQuantity.aspx?quantityList=" + quantityList + "&quanId=" + quantityTxtBxId + "&persId=" + nbrPersTextBxId, "quantityRadWindow");  
                var quantityTxtBx = $find(quantityTxtBxId);   
                quantityTxtBx._textBoxElement.readOnly = false;                  
                return false;  
            }  
 
            function OnQuantityWindowClose(oWnd) {  
                //get the transferred arguments  
                var arg = oWnd.argument;  
                if (arg) {  
                    // alert("arg info: " + arg.quantity + "-" + arg.nbrOfPers + " " + arg.quanId + " " + arg.nbrPersId);  
                    $get('<%=nbrOfPersonsHF.ClientID %>').value = arg.nbrOfPers;  
                    $get(arg.nbrPersId).innerHTML = arg.nbrOfPers;  
                      
                    $get('<%=quantityHF.ClientID %>').value = arg.quantity;  
 
                    $get('<%=quantityListHF.ClientID %>').value = arg.quantityList;  
 
                    var quantityRadTxtBx = $find(arg.quanId);  
                    quantityRadTxtBx.set_value(arg.quantity);                          
                    quantityRadTxtBx._textBoxElement.readOnly  
    }

Hi Iana,

Thanks for your quick response.  I'd tried your example and it worked only if the RadNumericTextBox is updatable.  I am sorry for forgetting to tell you that the RadNumericTextBox used in my application is readonly (required by the business requirement).  I was able to replicate the issue using your example by setting the readonly flag to true (see the code below).  I think the validation issue is related to the readonly property of the RadNumericTextBox, but I don't know how to fix it. 

Thanks!

 <script type="text/javascript">

        var textBox = null;
        function Load(sender, eventArgs)
        {
            //assign the current radtextbox's object to the textBox variable
            textBox = sender;
        }
        function openWin()
        {
            var oWnd = radopen("Dialog.aspx", "RadWindow1");
            textBox._textBoxElement.readOnly = false;
        }

        function OnClientClose(sender, args)
        {
            var txtargument = args.get_argument();
            //set the needed value for the currently opened textbox
            textBox.set_value(txtargument);
            textBox._textBoxElement.readOnly = true;
        }

    </script>

Hi Tiffany,

I set the RadNumericTextBox as readonly however, the page continued behaving as expected on my side. Both the Required and Compare validators worked properly. Could you please check it out?

All the best,
