OnClientClicking
The clicking event occurs when the RadSwitch control is clicked, immediately after the mouse button is released. The event is fired after the client-side validation occurs, and can be canceled.
The event handler receives two parameters:
-
The instance of the clicked RadSwitch control.
-
An eventArgs parameter of type Telerik.Web.UI.ButtonCancelEventArgs, containing the following properties and methods:
-
get_cancel() - returns a bool value that indicates whether the event was canceled. True means the event is canceled.
-
set_cancel(shouldCancel) - sets a bool value that indicates whether the event will be canceled. Setting true means the event will be canceled.
-
get_commandName() - returns the value assigned to the RadSwitch's CommandName property.
-
get_commandArgument() - returns the value assigned to the RadSwitch's CommandArgument property.
-
This event comes handy in scenarios when the user wants to cancel the page submission, or prevent execution of the other client-side events based on a certain condition. One such scenario is confirming the submission of the page to the server. We ask the user if she wants to submit the page, and if a negative answer is received, we cancel the clicking event. Here is the code:
Example 1: Handling OnClientClicking event in RadSwitch.
<script type="text/javascript">
function Clicking(sender, args) {
args.set_cancel(!window.confirm("Are you sure?"));
}
</script>
<telerik:RadSwitch ID="RadSwitch1" runat="server" OnClientClicking="Clicking" OnClick="RadSwitch1_Click">
</telerik:RadSwitch>
<telerik:RadLabel ID="Label1" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="RadSwitch1" Text=""></telerik:RadLabel>protected void RadSwitch1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Label1.Text = "RadSwitch was clicked at: " + DateTime.Now.ToString();
}
