Is there a way to keep the width set on a button when using the FormDecorator?  I set the width on the button but when the button is rendered it shrinks the width to fit the text on the button.

I tried setting the CssClass on the button but it looks like the class is not carried through.

Through FireBug I can set the width on the generated <a> tag that is associated with the input button but I'm not seeing how to pass through any css attributes.

Hi Repairclinic,

You may use JavaScript is the id of the rendered button to set any CSS property to it:

document.getElementByIdId('SkinnedButton1').style.width = '100' + 'px';

All the best,

Is there any way to apply this change to all buttons on a form?

Hi Mark,

The current RadFormDecorator version addresses this problem automatically, and no code needs to be used.
Please download and try the latest available RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and give it a try.

In case there is a problem, please open a support ticket and send us a sample page that reproduces the problem - we will get back to you with a solution.


Kind regards,

Hi

I am facing some browser specific styling issues with the RAD form decorator styling for the buttons.

Used skin: Vista
Version: 2009.2.826.35

Is there a way to have set consistent spacing within the buttons? or can we expect this to be fixed in later versions of the the Form decorator?

Find attached an image with look and feel of the buttons in different browsers.

Thanks
Malinda

Hello Malinda,

You can try getting the latest RadControls build (Q3 2009, version 2009.3.1208) and see if the buttons look better. If that does not help, please send us a sample page so we can test it here or just tell us what doctype (XHTML 1.1, 1.0, plain HTML, etc.) are you using.

Sincerely yours,
Lini

As you requested I tried the latest version (Q3 2009, version 2009.3.1208) but couldn't see any noticeable difference.

Below are the html declarations I use
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Hello Malinda,

Please, send us a small sample project where the issue you are experiencing can be observed. I just checked with the latest version of RadControls, but unfortunately I did not see any of the issues you have reported, and I would like to look at your exact setup and version of our suite.

All the best,
