OnClientCreateNewFolder

The client-side CreateNewFolder event is raised when a new folder is created in RadFileExplorer.

To handle this event, simply write a JavaScript function that can be called when the event occurs. Then assign the name of this function as the value of the OnClientCreateNewFolder property of the control.

The client-side OnClientCreateNewFolder event handler receives two arguments:

Sender: The RadFileExplorer object that fired the event.

Event arguments: An event arguments object of type Telerik.Web.UI.FileExplorerEventArgs that exposes the following methods:

Table 1: OnClientCreateNewFolder Event Arguments Object

Name	Parameters	Return Type
get_cancel()	Boolean	Returns a value that indicates whether the event is cancelled.
get_item()	Object	Returns the currently loaded folder.
get_newPath()	String	Returns the path to the created folder.
get_path()	String	Returns the name of the created folder.
set_cancel(value)	Boolean	Sets whether the event will be cancelled (if true is passed).

Example 1: Confirm new folder creation in the RadFileExplorer's client-side CreateNewFolder event handler.

<script>
    function onClientCreateNewFolder(fileExplorer, args) {
        var alertResult = confirm(" Do you want to perform this operation ?");
        if (alertResult) {
            alert("The new folder's name : " + args.get_newPath());
            alert("The path : " + args.get_path());
        } else {// Cancel creation        
            args.set_cancel(true);
        }
