When the Telerik treeview is used and the node's ExpandMode is set to ServerSide, selecting a node causes postback to occur. The existing tree has a lot of nodes. This causes a delay when trying to select other nodes. We avoid the postback that occurs after node selection by using the OnClientNodeChecking and set_cancel(true) methods. Our problem is that when going to the server, the tree is loosing its state. In cases where expanding a node also causes postpack, we would like to know if there is a way to save the state of the treeview nodes before the postback occurs so that we can be aware of the state of the nodes on the server. (We want to use this implementation).
