OnLoad

The OnLoad client-side event occurs after the RadChat has been fully initialized on the client-side.

The event handler receives one parameter:

1. The RadChat instance firing the event.

This event is helpful if you need to get the client-side instance of the RadChat when it is embedded in other controls, if you need to configure a chat agent or if you need to post some initial messages.

ASPNET

<script type="text/javascript">
    function onLoad(sender) {
        var chat = sender;
        chat.postMessage("Hello!");
    }
</script>
<telerik:RadChat runat="server" ID="RadChat1">
    <ClientEvents OnLoad="onLoad" />
</telerik:RadChat>
