Hi,

Please find a complete tutorial on how to modify the behavior of the default dialogs of RadFileExplorer in the following KB article:
Change the behaviors of the embedded dialogs

Also, if you want to disable the RadWindow popups and open the files using default browser windows you can use the following sample code:

<telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="RadFileExplorer1" runat="server" OnClientFileOpen="OnClientFileOpen">

</telerik:RadFileExplorer>

<script type="text/javascript">

function OnClientFileOpen(oExplorer, args)

{

//get the extension of the opened item

var fileExt = args.get_item().get_extension();

if (fileExt && fileExt.toLowerCase() == "pdf")

{

//cancel the default behavior

args.set_cancel(true);

//open new RadWindow

var oWnd = radopen(args.get_item().get_path(), "RadWindow1");

//set size to the newly opened RadWindow

oWnd.setSize(600, 400);

//if you want to open the PDF file in a new browser window

//you can use the following code

//window.open(args.get_item().get_path());

}

</script>

I hope this helps

Hello Marc,

In case that you don't want to use the RadWindow control, you can check whether the current file is directory or not, and use the window.open method to open the current file. E.g.
ASPX:

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

<!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">

<head id="Head1" runat="server">

<title></title>

</head>

<body>

<form id="form1" runat="server">

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">

</asp:ScriptManager>

<div>

<telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="RadFileExplorer1" runat="server" OnClientFileOpen="OnClientFileOpen">

<Configuration ViewPaths="~/Files" />

</telerik:RadFileExplorer>

<script type="text/javascript">

function OnClientFileOpen(oExplorer, args)

{

var isDirectory = args.get_item().isDirectory();

if (!isDirectory)

{

//cancel the default behavior - RadWindow will not show

args.set_cancel(true);

var itemPath = args.get_item().get_path();

//if you want to open the PDF file in a new browser window

//you can use the following code

window.open(itemPath);

}

</script>

</div>

</form>

</body>

</html>

Hope this helps.
