RadWindow shows on load

[Fit2Page]

Hi,

I have a strange behavior of RadWindow with the following code:

<telerik:RadWindow OpenerElementID = "hyp_YT" BackColor="Yellow" Style="z-index: 9999" Height="446px" Width="784px" ShowContentDuringLoad="false" VisibleStatusbar="false" Animation="Fade" ID="RadWindow1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa</ContentTemplate>
</telerik:RadWindow>

 when i fill the property "BackColor" the the contenttemplate, the RadWindow is showing on Page.Load.
See behavior live on http://axxent.ontwikkelruimte.nl

Hello Marc,

I could not replicate this locally with the provided code. Could you explain how you get to this issue?
Also, please note that the BackColor property is not implemented in RadWindow and it should not be used. If you want to style the content you can use CSS or the content elements themselves (e.g., a Panel in the ContentTemplate).

Here is how the content template should be styled with CSS:

.myClass .rwWindowContent div
{
    background-color: Yellow;
}

where myClass is set in the RadWindow markup so you can cascade through that if you want (and, of course, you may remove it if you want to style all such popups:

<telerik:RadWindow CssClass="myClass" . . . .</telerik:RadWindow>

What I suspect is that some CSS rule or JavaScript code has removed the display:none rule from the div, because RadWIndow puts it by default. Here is how such a RadWIndow would look like before rendering its popup element:

<div style="z-index: 9999; background-color: yellow;" id="RadWindow1">
    <div style="display: none;" id="RadWindow1_C">

                    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    </div><input id="RadWindow1_ClientState" name="RadWindow1_ClientState" type="hidden" autocomplete="off">
</div>

which comes from this aspx markup:

<telerik:RadWindow OpenerElementID="hyp_YT" BackColor="Yellow" Style="background-color: yellow; z-index: 9999"
                   Height="446px" Width="784px" ShowContentDuringLoad="false" VisibleStatusbar="false"
                   Animation="Fade" ID="RadWindow1" runat="server">
    <ContentTemplate>
        aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
    </ContentTemplate>
</telerik:RadWindow>

Nevertheless, if remocing the BackColor is not an option for you, the following script should once again hide any RadWindow ContentTemplate on the page:

function pageLoad()
{
    $telerik.$("div[id$='_C']").hide();
}

Hi Marin,

The BackColor property is geven to me through Visual Studio. It appears in the Properties list...

Hi Marc,

The property is inherited from the base class all our contorls inherit:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.webcontrol.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.webcontrol.backcolor.aspx/

This is why it is available in the intellisense and the Properties window.

I do not believe making it throw an exception when used will improve the control, which is why it is left as it is.
