BTW this works fine in Firefox but not in IE7 or 8.

I have a TreeView with ContextMenu's that call the following JS:

    
            function onClientContextMenuItemClicking(sender, args) { 
        
                    var menuItem = args.get_menuItem(); 
        
                    var treeNode = args.get_node(); 
        
                    menuItem.get_menu().hide(); 
        
                    switch (menuItem.get_value()) { 
        
                        case "rename": 
        
                            treeNode.startEdit(); 
        
                            break; 
        
                    } 
        
                }

I also have a RadAjaxManager so that this treeview triggers another panel:

    
            <telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server"> 
        
                <AjaxSettings> 
        
                    <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="RadTreeViewDockets"> 
        
                            <UpdatedControls> 
        
                                <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="PanelViewArea" LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" /> 
        
                            </UpdatedControls> 
        
                        </telerik:AjaxSetting> 
        
                </AjaxSettings> 
        
            </telerik:RadAjaxManager>

In IE8, when I hit the Rename Context menu, for an instant the node appears editable but then it immediately looses focus and is not editable. I also tried wrapping both the TreeView and the other Panel in a RadAjaxPanel but had the same result.

Not sure if this is a bug or if there is a workaround.. Thanks!

Hello James,

Please try also to cancel the postback:

function onClientContextMenuItemClicking(sender, args) {

var menuItem = args.get_menuItem();

args.set_cancel(true);

var treeNode = args.get_node();

menuItem.get_menu().hide();

switch (menuItem.get_value()) {

case "rename":

treeNode.startEdit();

break;

}

and let us know how it goes.

Kind regards,
