RadRibbonBar client and server side events

[Andrew]

Hi,

How can I have RibbonBarButtons on the same RadRibbonBar with client and server side events.

Button ID = "Open" - client side event
Button ID =  "ChangeUser" - server side event

The problem I have is that "Open" causes a RadWindow to open on the client side via window.radopen, but when I add the server side event "onbuttonclick" it causes a postback and while the window.radopen is called the postback causes it to disappear again. I somehow need to cancel postback when the client event is handled. Is there an easy way to do this?

<telerik:RadRibbonBar ID="MainRibbon" runat="server" SelectedTabIndex="0" Skin="Windows7"
        AccessKey="O" 
        onclientbuttonclicked="ButtonClicked"
onbuttonclick="MainRibbon_ButtonClick">
        <telerik:RibbonBarTab Text="File">
            <telerik:RibbonBarGroup Text="Patients">
                <Items>
                    <telerik:RibbonBarButton Text="Open patient" Size="Large" ImageUrlLarge="../Images/Open.png" ID="Open" />
                </Items>
            </telerik:RibbonBarGroup>
            <telerik:RibbonBarGroup Text="Users">
                <Items>
                    <telerik:RibbonBarButton Text="Change user" Size="Large" ImageUrlLarge="../Images/ChangeUser.png" ID="ChangeUser" />
                    <telerik:RibbonBarButton Text="Log off" Size="Large" ImageUrlLarge="../Images/ArrowLeft.png" ID="LogOff" />
                </Items>
            </telerik:RibbonBarGroup>
        </telerik:RibbonBarTab>
    </telerik:RadRibbonBar>

Hello Andrew,

Yes, you can cancel the ButtonClicking event on the client, which in turn will stop the postback. Here is more info about the event.

I hope this helps.
