[Solved] RADWindow Function only works first time in IE

[Jim]

I have this issue where I call a function to open a radwindow that works fine in FF but only works the first time in IE...

function MyFunction()
{
    debugger;
    var oWnd = radopen("http://www.google.com", "MyRadWindow");
    oWnd.Show();
}

very simple I know...I hit the break point fine everytime in FF but in IE only the first time...
here is how I am calling the function...there are hyperlink controls in a repeater...

lnk.Attributes.Add("onClick", "javascript: MyFunction(); return false;");

the error that I get is: Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this property or method

as if it doesn't see the function. if a change the myfunction() to alert("hello") it works every time...

am I missing something?  thanks!

Try this single line of javascript instead:

window.radopen("http://www.google.com", "MyRadWindow");

Assuming you have something like this on your page also:

<telerik:RadWindowManager runat="server" ID="RadWindowManager1" EnableShadow="true" RestrictionZoneID="form1" KeepInScreenBounds="true">
    <Windows>
        <telerik:RadWindow ID="MyRadWindow" runat="server" RegisterWithScriptManager="true" ReloadOnShow="true"
            ShowContentDuringLoad="false" Width="838px" Height="400px"
            Title="My Window" Behaviors="Move, Resize, Close" Modal="true" VisibleStatusbar="false" VisibleTitlebar="true" />
    </Windows>
</telerik:RadWindowManager>

Hi Dan,

Thanks For your help. I changed the function to the one line as you sugested but the windo only pops the first time. Let me clarify that the error that I get is a script error when I click the URL. I dummied down the example quite a bit because there are parameters that I pass to the function etc... But again it works fine in FF and works fine the first time in IE7.

Hi Jim,

This works fine with me, so what I would advise is that you check for JavaScript errors thrown either by some event handler attached to your custom RadWindow, or for errors thrown by the page you load inside, as some pages that automatically set focus tend to throw a JS error when loaded in an iframe. You can first enable the error notifications from the Internet Options.

If you are still experiencing difficulties I advise that you open a support ticket and send us a page that reproduces this behavior so we can examine it and see what is going on.


Best wishes,
