Server-side Programming Overview

Overview of the Server-side APIs you can use to create and configure the Telerik WebForms Chip Control.

Creating the AIPrompt in the Markup

To create a Chip in the markup, add the RadAIPrompt element to the page and set its properties accordingly. You can find the properties in the following article:

• Properties

Example

ASP.NET

<telerik:RadAIPrompt runat="server" ID="RadAIPrompt1" Width="300px" />

Creating the AIPrompt dynamically

To create the AIPrompt on the server, create a new instance of the RadAIPrompt object, set its properties and add it to the Controls collection of another control (e.g. PlaceHolder1).

Example.

C#

protected void Page_PreInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadAIPrompt aiPrompt = new RadAIPrompt()
    {
        Width = Unit.Pixel(400)
    };

    PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(chip);
}

VB

Protected Sub Page_PreInit(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.PreInit
    Dim aiPrompt As RadAIPrompt = New RadAIPrompt() With {
        .Width = Unit.Pixel(400)
    }

    PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(chip)
End Sub

The PlaceHolder1

ASP.NET

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server"></asp:PlaceHolder>

Creating controls programmatically must be done in an early event such as PreInit (preferably), Init. For more details you can check out the ASP.NET Page Life-Cycle Events
