[Solved] Strange behaviour with gridHtmlEditor column

[Clive Hoggar]

HI Guys

Can anyone help me with this strange unwanted feature...?

I am using the standard popup edit form with a RadEditor for one column and a gridHtmlEditor
for another, and entering content in design view. If I enter text content in the RadEditor content box, and use the hyperlink button to insert a link on some text, and then move to the gridHtmlEditor content box and enter some more text there, as soon as I enter the letter 'i' it opens the hyperlink dialog box instead of entering the letter! Basically cannot type anything in that box which contains the letter 'i'!

Has anyone encountered this and what was the fix?

Here is the declaration for the two columns in question:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn DataField="Body" HeaderText="Body" SortExpression="Body" UniqueName="Body" Visible="False">
            <EditItemTemplate>
               <telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server" ExternalDialogsPath="~/EditorDialogs" Language="en-GB" Skin="Default" StripFormattingOnPaste="MSWordRemoveAll" Width="500px" StripFormattingOptions="MSWordRemoveAll" Content='<%# Bind("Body") %>' contentareabackgroundcolor="white" OnClientModeChange="OnClientModeChange">
                    <Links>
                        <telerik:EditorLink Name="COTN website homepage" Href="http://www.church-on-the-net.com" Target="_Blank" />
                    </Links>
                    <Content>
                    </Content>
                    <ImageManager ViewPaths="~/Images/weekly" UploadPaths="~/Images/weekly" DeletePaths="~/Images/weekly" MaxUploadFileSize="500000" SearchPatterns="*.png,*.jpg,*.gif" />
                    <Tools>
                        <telerik:EditorToolGroup>
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Cut" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Copy" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Paste" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Bold" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Italic" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="InsertUnorderedList" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Indent" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Outdent" />
                            <telerik:EditorSplitButton Name="ForeColor" Width="80px">
                            </telerik:EditorSplitButton>
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="LinkManager" ShowText="True" Text="Insert hyperlink" />
                            <telerik:EditorTool Name="ImageManager" ShowText="True" Text="Insert image" />
                        </telerik:EditorToolGroup>
                    </Tools>
                </telerik:RadEditor>
            </EditItemTemplate>
            <ItemTemplate></ItemTemplate>
        </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

        <telerik:GridHTMLEditorColumn UniqueName="Resources" SortExpression="Resources" HeaderText="Going deeper"
                    DataField="Resources" Visible="false" HeaderStyle-VerticalAlign="Top">
<HeaderStyle VerticalAlign="Top"></HeaderStyle>
<ItemStyle Width="500px"></ItemStyle>
        </telerik:GridHTMLEditorColumn>

Browser was Chrome 29, Controls are Q32010, server iis 7.5 with asp.net 2.0 on this legacy site

Thanks for any pointers!

Hi Clive,

I have tried to replicate the issue but to no avail. You could take a look at the video and observe if I am missing something out. Note that we recommend upgrading your version to the latest stable release so we could ensure the problem is not already fixed.
