radwindowmanager size issue/question.

[Stacy]

Hi, I have a radwindowmanager with the following properties set.

ClientIDMode="Static"
ID="YearEndWindows"
Width="1000"
Height="600"
VisibleStatusbar="false"
Behaviors="Close,Move,Resize"
runat="server"
OnClientClose="onClientClose"
DestroyOnClose="true"
Modal="true"
ShowContentDuringLoad="false"

I have two buttons that use this to open a window.  If I click a button and open the first window, all is good.  If I click the second button and try to use javascript to change the height/width, the window still opens 1000x600 even though it was changed thru code.  Is there an issue or am I using this wrong?

 

JavaScript:

var manager = $find(managerName);

if (fullscreenMode) { //Boolean I pass in to change the default 1000x600 setting

    manager.setSize(1920, 1075);

}

manager.open(url, null); //url is populated

 

Also if I change the code to this:

manager.open(getUrl(url), null, 300, 300);

I get a javascript error complainging about 'getElementsByTagName'. 

 

Any ideas?  Thanks.

Hi Stacy,

RadWndow (and all controls from the UI for ASP.Net AJAX) does not support static IDs and cannot function properly when used with ClientIDMode="Static". Please, set the ClientIDMode="AutoID" and see if the problem persists.

Tried that but that is even worse as it causes a javascript blowup as I cant "find" my window unless the ClientIDMode is static.

ex. 

var managerName = 'YearEndWindows';

var manager = $find(managerName); //blowups up since ClientIDMode is not static.

 

Our app always used ClientIDMode=static and has many $find calls to open windows and haven't had an issue except the one I just logged.

Hi Stacy,

You can get reference to the controls with AutoID by accessing it though a server-side tag. Please, note that this is not specific to our controls but is a general programming issue:

For example:

var manager = $find("=<%YearEndWindows.ClientID%>");
