get the description field of a classifiction in code

Hi,

 I am new to sitefinity, I am looking for a way to the access the description field of the classification in my code.

 Please let me know how I can do that.

 I have written code that gets me all the classifications(hierarchial taxonomy) in the form of a tree that I am binding to a RadTreeView control. 

Each node has properties like text, navigateURL etc. but no Description. I assume I have to do it differently to get the description field.

Any help or direction is appreciated.

Thanks! 

Hello Phani,

The HierarchicaltTaxonomy class has a Description property available. Please take a look at our API Reference:

http://www.sitefinity.com/documentation/ApiReference/webframe.html#topic215451.html

You can see examples of using the property in our Documentation. I have also attached a sample RadTreeView that uses Categories and displays their Description.

I hope this helps.
