Telerik RadEditor Image Manager / Integration With User Documents Storage Engine?
Feb 14, 2010
We are using Telerik RadEditor control in our project and having some problems with its integration with our user documents storage engine. We've implemented custom content provider for Telerik image manager and it shows correct documents in dialog. But in doesn't switch between images while selection. You can see this on this picture. We've tested this behaviour on the blank ASP.NET page without any additional CSS or JS. Rad editor tag could be found below. Please help! Why do this could happen?
I have an issue using Telerik RadEditor with IE (not Firefox, not Chrome and not Safari). I think that i have a conflicting css style but i have no idea of wich one (tryed to delete most of the styles). I also tryed to add a ContentEditorArea.css.
How RadEditor displays in IE8 (not very different in IE7) : http://www.skalae.fr/radeditor.jpg
<member name="P:Telerik.Web.UI.RadDataBoundControl.Skin"> <summary>Gets or sets the skin name for the control user interface.</summary> <value>A string containing the skin name for the control user interface. The default is string.Empty.</value> <remarks> <para> If this property is not set, the control will render using the skin named "Default". If EnableEmbeddedSkins is set to false, the control will not render skin. </para> </remarks> </member>
that says RadControls are using skin named Default..Now what if I want it to be not default ..what if I want it to be some CustomSkin to be rendered and not default skin?? Where do I need to set the value for the skin I wanna use? I don't know much of XML..so asking
Whats this xml file for anyway? Only describing stuff? What IS the purpose of this xml file??
[EDIT]
Tried setting Skin globally in webconfig.xml as mentioned in telerik's website as follows:-
RADEditor on my page was inheriting Master Page's CSS properties so followed this tutorial to create custom skin..now what I did was...I simply copied the Folder named "Default" under Skins folder and renamed it to "CustomSkin" and added it like in the code above ..thot it would work but it didn't coz now I don't see border on my RADEditor...why is that ? Also it is STILL inheriting properties from Master page's CSS file :(
I didn't change name of any of the CSS files inside "CustomSkin" folder...Also when I added the following inside "telerik:RadEditor"...still problem persisting..
The editor's using Default skin..when I made changes to Editor.Default.CSS file...they didn't reflect on my page..but when I type the following I can see the changes:-
Do I HAVE to create a custom Skin file for the changes to reflect ??I dont wanna coz the editor has been used in many files and now linking new custom CSS file in each and every aspx file will be such a pain.. I just want this to be added in the Skin:-
body { background-image:none; background-color:White; }
What this does is that it makes the background color of the content area white..earlier the content area of the Editor was inheriting background-image property of the Master Page's body tag...ohh and another funny issue is that the Font styles too are inheriting Master Page's properties only..like Heading 2 in the Editor's drop down list has got a background color when I want it to be simple..
So is making custom skin css file the only solution ..How do I get the changes to reflect thru the Default css file only ? I dont wanna create custom class..why didn't the changes reflect ?
In telerik:RadEditor tag ..I haven't specified any property such as Skin=Skin1 or whatever..so its using some default skin...In the Skins folder..there's this folder named "Default" that's got images and css files...Is "Default" what it's using ??? now when I change something in the Default skin's CSS file...changes do not reflect on my page...so how do I find out which css its using ??can't figure out nothing from a path like that
[edit]
For this Editor mainly 3 css files are being used namely Editor.Default.css,Window.Default.css and ToolBar.Default.css..now when I view page source , I can't find refernce to any of these 3 css files...Also in firebug , under "Styles" where that weird css path is shown, its displaying CSS classes like .reToolbar , etc...now ALL the Skins' CSS files have got this CSS class ".reToolbar" ..so how to find out which CSS file's class is this particular ".reToolbar class" ??
The required functionality I am aiming for is to pull out RTF content from a database, edit it through a web interface (with a WYSIWYG editor) and then place the modified text back in to the database (in RTF format).
The control that I am using to do this is Telerik RadEditor (we have a license already for these controls). In the most recent version there appears to be functionality to load in RTF content from a string or a stream, but the only method I can see that is exposed for getting RTF back out is exportToRTF(); this method modified the headers and allows you to save a RTF version of the content you have just edited as a file.
The functionality to convert from HTML to RTF must exist somewhere within their library as you can export a RTF file, but I can not find any publicly exposed methods to pass this in to a stream or a string.
Does anybody know of a way that I can convert the HTML back to RTF using the Telerik libraries without saving out to a file?
foreach (Control control in ContentPlaceHolder1.Controls) { if(typeof(Control).Equals(Telerik.Web.UI.RadEditor)) { label1.Visible = true; label1.Text = "dhchk"; // control.CssFiles.Add("~/styles/myStyle.css"); } }
Error;-
'Telerik.Web.UI.RadEditor' is a 'type', which is not valid in the given context
Also, is this the correct way to add CSS class to radEditor controls ??
control.CssFiles.Add("~/styles/myStyle.css");
I actually wanna add 3-4 customized classes..how to do that?
also I was wondering if I can add some javascript or something in my Master page that will detect the ALL the radEditor controls and set their css classes ? don't know much of Javascript..how can that be made possible? how do I go about that? but first I want css classes to be set in code behind..what's wrong with the code?
[EDIT]
@Geek..I tried calling like this..is it correct?
Control c = new Control(); DoSomething(c);
now its giving this error in the method:-
The type or namespace name 'c' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
[EDIT]
I do have this namespace added "using System.Web.UI.WebControls;" why this error ??
Currently I have to click the Spell check button on RadEditor's toolbar to see the word suggestions. Is there any way for that? I did find a way to run Spell Checker on Submit Button click but how do I get what I want? I have gone through forums but in vain. Need help please. Thanks
Telerik people have not replied. It's been three days now so asking here. Anybody who is familiar with Telerik controls please help me out.

Currently I am looking to move my websites images to a storage service. I have two websites developed in PHP and ASP.NET.
Using Amazon S3 service we can host all our images and videos to serve web pages. But there are some limitations using S3 service when we want to serve images.
If website needs different thumbnail images with different sizes from original image, it is tough. We have again need to subscribe for EC2 also. Though the data transfer from S3 to EC2 is free, it takes time for data transfer before processing image resize operation. Uploading number of files in zip format and unzipping in S3 is not possible to reduce number of uploads. Downloading multiple files from S3 is not possible in case if we want to shift to another provider. Image names are case sensitive in S3. Which will not load images if image name does not match with request. Among all these first one is very important thing since image resize is general requirement. Which provider is best suitable to achieve my goal. Can I move to Google AppEngine only for the purpose of image hosting or is there any other vendor who can provide above services?
What is the best approach to storing images in a file system. Currently I am separating the images by day, month and then year. I am also hashing file name so that no two files will be stored with the same name. Lastly, how would I go about using the image file address in a forum?
I have a windows application that stores a file on the current user's isolated storage, lets call this user Adam. On the same machine I have a Web service (The Web Service's application pool is running with Adam's credentials) that uses the same dll to access the file on the isolated storage but it is trying to access a file on the Default User's profile instead of the real user's profile (in this case Adams Profile)
Why is it trying to look for the file on the Default User's profile Instead of Adam's Profile? How can i make it look for the file in the right profile?. I'm running it on Win 2003, C# and .Net framework 3.5
At my asp.net project I need display big documents to user. Beacuse document has a lot of text, I need use paging. Every page should have about 5000 symbols. I want split pages by logical tokens such as <br/> nbsp space.
I am embarking on a project that allows a few administators to upload various files and then make them viewable to a subset of the other users that can login to the site. I'm planning on using ASP.NET MVC and was wondering what the best way would be to store the files? Two thoughts came to mind, storing direcly on the server in a folder and storing them in a SQL database.
The first seems like it might be the most logical but how do you prevent an authenticated user from simply typing in the address of a file that they are not permitted to view. My first thought was to setup the folder so that it would be browsed directly via the web.config, but then how does the user view the files they are supposed to view?
Alternatively, I figured if I stored the files in a SQL server, this would prevent the problem just presented but then how does one take, say a PDF file, store it in the database and then render it to a webpage when requested. Secondly, is this efficient to store files in a SQL server?
when i m going to store img in db and using fileupload control it's not possible to store , but if i remove update panel and scr... manager i can. need soluation. i m storing img as image in db as filebyte
In of my application I am using the database to store and retrive images. The table stores the documents and the datatype of the field is IMage.
Now with Sql Server 2008, i would like to upgrade this to use this new feature. WHat changes do I have to make in terms of code and also in the database.
Is there a way to use the firefox (or chrome or any other good browsers) rendering engine to convert html (as a text string) to an image?I have full access to the server I'm using, so no limitations there.
I have an application in which inside my aspx page i have an user control which gets loaded at runtime.Inside this user control I have collapsible panel extender from ajax toolkit for which i have inserted scriptmanager tag at the starting of user control.At run time I am getting an error only one instance of script manager can be added...though I have not added script manager in my aspx apge..
i m using Telerik grid to present memos received by user below is the code
[Code]....
where i m binding third column (Subject) my intention is to make an ActionLink where subject is the display text and i want a dynamic ID coming from <#=MemoID#>. memo id is working fine and gives me a link with dynamic Memo IDs. the problem is with the subject i.e ("<#=Subject#>") is rendered as it is on the screen without mapping to the actual subject of the memo. i have also tried ("<%#=Subject%>") but to no gain.
How to pass user credential from ASP.Net application to open Report Manager in a new window. When I'm searching in the net, basic authentication was the solution I found. But don't know to pass credential through code
In my application, there is only a login page and a report page. When the user enters his login credentials he will be redirected from the login page to the reports page. I am using forms authentication for this purpose.
On the reports page I will be displaying various reports (using Telerik reporting) based on user inputs for various fields.
Now here is the funnier part; My application works correctly in all browsers (including Safari on windows platform). But when I open it in an Ipad I am getting the below error,
"Potentially dangerous request.form value was detected from the client " This error occurs when the forms authentication redirection happens from the login page to the reports page.
I tried a variety of solutions like setting ValidateRequest="false" & requestValidationMode="2.0" , but none of them helped. I also tried removing the forms authentication and that also didn't
