Update Appointment from AdvancedForm Postback

[Alex Occhipinti]

Should be a really simple thing, and I've searched, but didn't come up with much. 

Just need to call the updated method on the AdvancedForm from another button.  I've tried:

Owner.UpdateAppointment(Appointment)

But this didn't seem to do anything good or bad.

Thanks

Hi Alex,

Hello Waqas,

You can achieve this using the Advanced Templates. Download a demo from here and make the following changes:

AdvancedForm.ascx

Copy Code

<asp:Panel runat="server" ID="ButtonsPanel" CssClass="rsAdvancedSubmitArea">
           <div class="rsAdvButtonWrapper">
               <asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="UpdateButtonSpecial" Width="120px"
                   CssClass="rsAdvEditSaveSpecial" onclick="UpdateButtonSpecial_Click">
                   <span>Save and send sms</span>
               </asp:LinkButton>
               <asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="UpdateButton" CssClass="rsAdvEditSave">
                   <span>Save</span>
               </asp:LinkButton>
               <asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="CancelButton" CssClass="rsAdvEditCancel" CommandName="Cancel"
                   CausesValidation="false">
                   <span><%= Owner.Localization.Cancel %></span>
               </asp:LinkButton>
           </div>
       </asp:Panel>

AdvancedForm.ascx.cs

Copy Code

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            UpdateButton.ValidationGroup = Owner.ValidationGroup;
            UpdateButtonSpecial.ValidationGroup = Owner.ValidationGroup;
            UpdateButton.CommandName = Mode == AdvancedFormMode.Edit ? "Update" : "Insert";
            UpdateButtonSpecial.CommandName = Mode == AdvancedFormMode.Edit ? "Update" : "Insert";

            InitializeStrings();

            if (!FormInitialized)
            {
                PopulateDescriptions();
                InitializeMonthlyRecurrenceControls();
                InitializeYearlyRecurrenceControls();
                PrefillRecurrenceControls();
                UpdateResetExceptionsVisibility();
            }
        }
        protected void UpdateButtonSpecial_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Response.Write("Save and sent sms");
        }

AdvancedForm.js

Copy Code

_initializeClientMode : function ()
   {
       this._clientMode = true;
       var template = this;
       $("a.rsAdvEditSaveSpecial", this._formElement)
           .click(function(e) {
               template._saveClicked();
               $telerik.cancelRawEvent(e);
           })
           .attr("href", "#");
       $("a.rsAdvEditSave", this._formElement)
           .click(function(e) {
               template._saveClicked();
               $telerik.cancelRawEvent(e);
            })
           .attr("href", "#");

       $("a.rsAdvEditCancel", this._formElement)
           .click(function(e) {
               template._cancelClicked();
               $telerik.cancelRawEvent(e);
           })
           .attr("href", "#");
   },

You would also need to create your custom background image for the special button. You can apply it via its CssClass.

Copy Code

.rsAdvEditSaveSpecial
     {
         background: none !important;
     }

Attached please find a sample demo of the required functionality.
