[Solved] Ticker Not Ticking On Postback

[Dave]

I have a rotator with a ticker in the item template bound to an XLMDataSource on my page set up like:

                <telerik:RadRotator ID="RadRotator1" runat="server"
                    DataSourceID="XmlDataSource1" Width="100%" FrameDuration="6000"
                    ScrollDirection="Left" ScrollDuration="800" Height="250px"
                    PauseOnMouseOver="False" ItemWidth="200px">
                    <ItemTemplate>
                        <div class="tickdetail">
                            <div class="clogo"><img src="<%# XPath("LogoFile") %>" alt=""/></div>
                            <div class="tickdesc" style="text-align:center">
                                <telerik:RadTicker ID="Ticker1" runat="server" TickSpeed="50">
                                    <Items>
                                        <telerik:RadTickerItem Text='<%# XPath("Description") %>' />
                                    </Items>
                                </telerik:RadTicker>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                    <SlideShowAnimation Duration="1000" Type="Fade" />
                </telerik:RadRotator>

When I go to my page everything appears to work fine and I see the rotator doing its thing and the ticker is ticking.  But when I click an item on the page that causes a postback, the rotator shows the associated image but the ticker no noger runs.  Any ideas?

Hi Sam,

That behavior occurs and it is expected because the RadTicker needs to be rebound after post back. You can achieve this by calling the RadRotator1.DataBind() function in the PageLoad() event handler :

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadRotator1.DataBind();
}

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
