Useing RadWindowManager in a ascx-file

[Henrik Tegman]

Hello,

I wanted to use a RadWindow and so I followed the tutorial posted here:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/window_gettingstarted.html

But I already had a project so I tried to use that one, and I wanted my RadWindowManager and the windows to be in a ascx file.
I'm createing a control that has a simple dropdown and some button and when one of the buttons are pressed a popup is supposed to show where the user can put in some data. BUT I can't get the RadWindowManager to work in this ascx.

To test this component I have a default.aspx where I put it just to test things out, and when I moved the RadWindoManger to that page then it worked right away, but that is not the way I want it. I want my component to be complete so to say, I want to just drag in this component into another project and then it will have the dropdown, the buttons and also the fuctionality to open up radwindows.

Does it have something todo that the ascx isn't telerikcompatible?
I have a RadScriptManager on my default.aspx but I can't add another to the ascx, and it shouldn't need one either as I understand.

Any help would be very helpful.
Thank you in advance!

Hi Henrik,

 <asp:Button ID="ButtonCreate" runat="server" Text="Create" /> 

 

<

 

asp:Button ID="ButtonEdit" runat="server" Text="Edit" />  

 

 

<

 

telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server" Skin="Vista">

 

 

<Windows>

 

<telerik:RadWindow ID="RadWindow1" runat="server" Behavior="Default" InitialBehavior="None"

 

NavigateUrl="AdressEditor.aspx" OpenerElementID="ButtonCreate" Title="AdressEditor">

 

</telerik:RadWindow>

 

<telerik:RadWindow ID="RadWindow2" runat="server" Behavior="Default" InitialBehavior="None" Title="Telerik"

 

OpenerElementID="ButtonEdit" NavigateUrl="http://www.telerik.com">

 

</telerik:RadWindow>

 

</Windows>

</

 

telerik:RadWindowManager>

As you can see it's just the basics, very simple.

Hello Henrik,

The reason for the problem is that you are using the ID property of the asp:Button control in OpenerElementID while the OpenerElementID expects a ClientID. Because you put that code in a user control, the asp:Button's ID differs from the ClientID hence the problem.
Note that the OpenerElementID / OffsetElementID properties are intended to be used in very simple scenarios only. More information on the subject is available in the documentation and in the description of the corresponding demo.
