RadWindow Display Issue - Doesn't Display Until Row Click

[Shawn]

I have a call to display a radwindow alert after a record update in the rad grid 'UpdateCommand' like so:

Protected Sub grid_dealerships_UpdateCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles grid_dealerships.UpdateCommand

Dim editedItem As GridEditableItem = TryCast(e.Item, GridEditableItem)

Dim dealer_id As String = editedItem.OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues(editedItem.ItemIndex)("dealer_id")

Try

Dim dealer_name As String = (TryCast(editedItem.FindControl("txt_dealer_name"), TextBox)).Text

Dim logged As Integer = Dealership_DataAccess.UpdateDealershipInformation(dealer_id, dealer_name)

IF logged > 0 then

DisplayMessage(String.Format("Dealership: <br/><br/><b>{0} - {1}</b><br/><br/> Was UPDATED SUCCESSFULLY!", dealer_id, dealer_name), "Dealership UPDATED")

End If

Catch ex As Exception

DisplayMessage("Unable to update dealership record. Reason: " + ex.Message, "Update ERROR")

e.Canceled = True

End Try

End Sub

Private Sub DisplayMessage(ByVal text As String, ByVal title As String)

RadAjaxManager1.ResponseScripts.Add("Sys.Application.add_load(function(){radalert('" & text & "', 330, 210, '" & title & "');})")

End Sub

Everything regarding the update works properly but the display alert does not show.  If I select a different record on the grid to display or edit then all of a sudden the alert will show up correctly....

Here is my window manager from the aspx page which only displays a radWindow I use for a different purpose.

<telerik:RadCodeBlock ID="RadCodeBlock1" runat="server">
            <script type="text/javascript">
                function ShowDealerIDs() {
                    window.radopen("../shared/dealerID_list.aspx", "UserListDialog");
                    return false;
                }
            </script>
        </telerik:RadCodeBlock>
            <telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server"> <AjaxSettings>
                    <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="RadAjaxManager1">
                        <UpdatedControls>
                            <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grid_dealerships" />
                        </UpdatedControls>
                    </telerik:AjaxSetting>
                    <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="grid_dealerships">
                        <UpdatedControls>
                            <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grid_dealerships" />
                        </UpdatedControls>
                    </telerik:AjaxSetting>
                </AjaxSettings>
            </telerik:RadAjaxManager>

    <telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server">
    <Windows>
                    <telerik:RadWindow Skin="Default"  ID="UserListDialog" runat="server" Title="User List Dialog" Height="800px"
                        Width="550px" Left="100px" ReloadOnShow="true" Modal="true"  />
                </Windows>
    </telerik:RadWindowManager>

Hi Shawn,

I would suggest to check if the function is really called the first time - you can test this by using a simple alert in it. If the alert shows up as expected, but you still cannot show radalert the first time, please open a support ticket and send us a project that uses your logic and reproduce this behavior. We will check it and do our best to help.

When I add a simple msgbox before the message I want displayed in the RadWindow it works correctly - like so:

Protected Sub grid_dealerships_UpdateCommand(ByVal source As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles grid_dealerships.UpdateCommand

        Dim editedItem As GridEditableItem = TryCast(e.Item, GridEditableItem)
        Dim dealer_id As String = editedItem.OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues(editedItem.ItemIndex)("dealer_id")

        Try
            Dim dealer_name As String = (TryCast(editedItem.FindControl("txt_dealer_name"), TextBox)).Text

            Dim logged As Integer = Dealership_DataAccess.UpdateDealershipInformation(dealer_id, dealer_name)

            IF logged > 0 then

MsgBox(String.Format("Dealership: <br/><br/><b>{0} - {1}</b><br/><br/> Was UPDATED SUCCESSFULLY!", dealer_id, dealer_name)

DisplayMessage(String.Format("Dealership: <br/><br/><b>{0} - {1}</b><br/><br/> Was UPDATED SUCCESSFULLY!", dealer_id, dealer_name), "Dealership UPDATED")

            End If

        Catch ex As Exception
            DisplayMessage("Unable to update dealership record. Reason: " + ex.Message, "Update ERROR")
            e.Canceled = True

        End Try

    End Sub

    Private Sub DisplayMessage(ByVal text As String, ByVal title As String)
        RadAjaxManager1.ResponseScripts.Add("Sys.Application.add_load(function(){radalert('" & text & "', 330, 210, '" & title & "');})")
    End Sub

Here is what I just discovered actually.  After I get the record to update correctly, the RadWindow that should show the "UPDATED SUCCESSFULLY" msg above actually displays EVERY time I click a row after that has been performed. 

How and why would that occur.  I can expand and collapse any row after update, but each time I do the message for the record I just updated displays...

Hello Shawn,

The msgbox is created and shown on the server only. If you try to open that same application from another machine, you will not see the msgbox.
Have you tried what I suggested in my previous reply - to put a standard browser alert in the function and check if it will be called the first time?
If you still experience problems, please open a support ticket and send me a runnable application that I can check. Once I receive it, I will investigate your scenario and provide you with the needed solution.
