RADEditor in custom designer IE error

Posted by Community Admin on 29-Mar-2011 00:00

I think I may have posted this to the wrong forum, initially so I am copying it here (sorry)

I have successfully gotten the the RADEditor to appear in a custom designer in SiteFinity 4.0 using Firefox.
However in IE, I get a javascript error:

Line: 2
Char:1
Error: 'parent.sys.Application' is null or is not an object
Code: 0

Any ideas??

Here's my .js code below.

/// <reference name="MicrosoftAjax.js"/>

///
<reference
name="Telerik.Sitefinity.Resources.Scripts.jquery-1.3.2.min-vsdoc2.js"
assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity.Resources"/>

Type.registerNamespace("iDBControls");

iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner = function (element)

iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner.initializeBase(this, [element]);

this._parentDesigner = null;

this._googleAnalyticsCodeTextField = null;

this._scriptEmbedPositionChoiceField = null;

this._toogleGroupSettingsDelegate = null;

iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner.prototype =

/* --------------------------------- set up and tear down --------------------------------- */

initialize: function ()

iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner.callBaseMethod(this, 'initialize');

this._toogleGroupSettingsDelegate = Function.createDelegate(this, function ()

dialogBase.resizeToContent();

);

//jQuery("#expanderDesignSettings").click(this._toogleDesignSettingsDelegate);

jQuery(".sfExpandableSection a").click(this._toogleGroupSettingsDelegate).click(function()

$(this).parents(".sfExpandableSection:first").toggleClass("sfExpandedSection");

);

,

dispose: function ()

iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner.callBaseMethod(this, 'dispose');

,

/* --------------------------------- public methods --------------------------------- */

// implementation of IControlDesigner: Forces the control to refersh from the control Data

refreshUI: function ()

//this._refreshMode = true;

var data = this.get_controlData();

try

$find(jQuery("#rdeEditorID").html()).set_html(data.HTML)

catch(e)

//$find(jQuery("#rdeEditorID").html()).set_html("")

,

// implementation of IControlDesigner: forces the designer view to apply the changes on UI to the control Data

applyChanges: function ()

var controlData = this.get_controlData();

controlData.HTML=GetHtmlSelection();

,

get_controlData: function ()

return this.get_propertyEditor().get_control();

,

_getSelectedChoice: function (groupName)

return jQuery(this.get_element()).find("input[name='" + groupName + "']:checked").val();

,

_clickRadioChoice: function (groupName, value)

return jQuery(this.get_element()).find("input[name='" + groupName + "'][value='" + value + "']").click();

,

/* --------------------------------- event handlers --------------------------------- */

/* --------------------------------- private methods --------------------------------- */

/* --------------------------------- properties --------------------------------- */

// gets the reference to the propertyEditor control

get_propertyEditor: function ()

return this._propertyEditor;

,

// sets the reference fo the propertyEditor control

set_propertyEditor: function (value)

this._propertyEditor = value;

,

//get_googleAnalyticsCodeTextField: function () return this._googleAnalyticsCodeTextField; ,

//set_googleAnalyticsCodeTextField: function (value) this._googleAnalyticsCodeTextField = value;

iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner.registerClass('iDBControls.MixedHTMLDesigner', Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.ControlDesign.ControlDesignerBase);

if (typeof (Sys) !== 'undefined') Sys.Application.notifyScriptLoaded();

function GetHtmlSelection()

try

var html=$find(jQuery("#rdeEditorID").html()).get_html()

return html

catch(e)

//alert(e)

This is my .ascx:

<%@ Control Language="C#"%>

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI" TagPrefix="sitefinity" %>

<sitefinity:ResourceLinks ID="resourcesLinks" runat="server">

<sitefinity:ResourceFile AssemblyInfo="iDBControls.MixedHTML, iDBControls" Name="iDBControls.Resources.Stylesheets.Designer.css" Static="true"/>

</sitefinity:ResourceLinks>

<div class="sfContentViews">

This is the place1

<div id="rdeEditorID" style="display:none;"><asp:Literal ID="litECID" runat="server" ></asp:Literal></div>

<telerik:RadEditor ID="rdEditor" runat="server" Editable="true" >

</telerik:RadEditor>

This is the place too

</div>

And finally, the .cs file:

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.ControlDesign;

using Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI;

using System.Web.UI;

using Telerik.Web.UI;

using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

namespace iDBControls

class MixedHTMLDesigner: ControlDesignerBase

protected override void InitializeControls(GenericContainer container)

base.DesignerMode = ControlDesignerModes.Simple;

protected override string LayoutTemplateName

get

return "iDBControls.Resources.MixedHTMLDesigner.ascx";

protected override HtmlTextWriterTag TagKey

get

//Use div wrapper tag to make easier common styling. This will surround the layout template with a div tag.

return HtmlTextWriterTag.Div;

public override IEnumerable<System.Web.UI.ScriptReference> GetScriptReferences()

var res = new List<ScriptReference>(base.GetScriptReferences());

var assemblyName = this.GetType().Assembly.GetName().ToString();

res.Add(new ScriptReference("iDBControls.Resources.MixedHTMLJS.js", assemblyName));

return res.ToArray();

protected virtual Literal litECID

get

return base.Container.GetControl<Literal>("litECID", true);

protected virtual RadEditor rdEditor

get

return base.Container.GetControl<RadEditor>("rdEditor", true);

protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter writer)

this.litECID.Text= rdEditor.ClientID;

rdEditor.Content = " ";

base.RenderContents(writer);

Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

So....

It turns out that's there a type/bug in the NewsRotator file "RotatorDesigner.js" that I used as an example.

Lines 92 & 93 are commented out but there is an extra comma that should have been commented out that wasn't, this seems to only cause a problem in IE.

Once I commented out the comma, everything worked.

I hope this saves someone ALOT of time!
