[Solved] Using Window without WindowManager

[Mark Rowe]

Hey,

I noticed with your examples that you are using the WindowManager.  In the overview of the new Window Control with Prometheus, you say you do not need the window manager.  Is there anything specific I need to do in order to use it without the Window Manager?

I ran two test using the following code.  It works when you have the Window Manager, but does not work without the Window Manager.

 

<script type="text/javascript">
function openRadWindow(url, windowname)
{
    var oWnd = radopen(url, windowname);
}
</script>

<asp:LinkButton ID="btnEditProfile" runat="server" Text="Edit Profile" OnClientClick="openRadWindow('../IT/EditProfile.aspx', 'Edit Profile'); return false;"></asp:LinkButton></span>

<telerik:RadWindowManager ID="test" runat="server">
<Windows>
<telerik:RadWindow ID="testing" runat="server"></telerik:RadWindow>
</Windows>
</telerik:RadWindowManager>

Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob Erwin,

To minimize the load on the page, radopen, radalert, radconfirm and radprompt are only available for the user when a RadWindowManager is present on the page.

To open a single RadWindow that is declared on your page, you need to get a reference to it using the ASP.NET AJAX $find() method and call show():

<script type="text/javascript">
    function openRadWindow(url, windowname)
    {
        var oWnd = $find("testing");
        oWnd.setUrl(url);
        oWnd.set_Title(windowname);
        oWnd.show();
    }
</script>

<asp:LinkButton ID="btnEditProfile" runat="server" Text="Edit Profile" OnClientClick="openRadWindow('../IT/EditProfile.aspx', 'Edit Profile'); return false;"></asp:LinkButton></span>
<telerik:RadWindow ID="testing" runat="server">
</telerik:RadWindow>

I hope this helps.
