Hi,

Hi Patxi,

I guess you want to set the colour of selected item like RadMenuRootitem. Try the following code and check whether it suits your need.

CS:

protected void RadMenu1_ItemClick(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.RadMenuEventArgs e)
{
    RadMenuItem selItem = (RadMenuItem)e.Item;
    foreach (RadMenuItem item in RadMenu1.GetAllItems())
    {
        if (item == selItem )
        {
           item.CssClass = "MyClass";
        }
        else
        {
            item.CssClass = "";
        }
    }
}

CSS:

<style type="text/css">
.MyClass
{
    background-color: Gray !important;
}
</style>

Note: Change the color according to the skin that you are using, if any.

Thanks,
Princy.

Thank you Princy.

I have checked your code and I don´t know why is not jumping to the event.
I have this code:
     <telerik:RadMenu ID="mnuAplicacion" runat="server" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" Skin=""  OnItemClick="RadMenu1_ItemClick">

But when clicking is not jumping to the function, don´t know the reason.
any idea?

Hello,

I write again to tell that I didn´t get what I wanted.

I have implemented the following code:

<telerik:RadMenu ID="mnuAplicacion"  runat="server" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" Skin="OT" Style="z-index: 2000" OnItemClick="RadMenu1_ItemClick" OnItemDataBound="RadMenu1_ItemDataBound">

       protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs
       {
            string item = Server.UrlDecode(Request["Item"]);
            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(item))
            {
                RadMenuItem currentItem = mnuAplicacion.FindItemByText(item);
                if (currentItem != null)
                {
                    //currentItem.HighlightPath();
                    currentItem.CssClass = "cambioFondo";
                }
            }
        }

        protected void RadMenu1_ItemDataBound(object sender, RadMenuEventArgs e)
        {
            e.Item.Attributes["NavigateUrl"] = e.Item.NavigateUrl;
            e.Item.NavigateUrl = "";
        }

        protected void RadMenu1_ItemClick(object sender, RadMenuEventArgs e)
        {
            //Custom code here

            //Navigate
            Response.Redirect(e.Item.Attributes["NavigateUrl"].ToString());
        }

But it is not executing RadMenu1_ItemDataBound function.

Do you know why?I need to get to be executed.

Thank you in advance.
