Dispose a RadEditor with AJAX (ASP UpdatePanel, RadAjaxpanel, RadAjaxManager) and if you attempt to show a floating toolbar (i.e. all ToolbarMode options except Default and RibbonBar) a JS error is thrown. There are two workarounds: 1) use ASP UpdatePanel with ChildrenAsTriggers=false and updateMode=Conditional 2) override several RadWindow methods to prevent the error (these scripts must be placed just before the closing </form> tag): <script type="text/javascript"> Telerik.Web.UI.RadWindow.prototype._moveElementToShowOutOfView = function () { if (this.view) this.view.moveOutOfSight(); } Telerik.Web.UI.RadWindow.prototype.setVisible = function (toShow) { if (this.view) { if (toShow) this.view.show(); else this.view.hide(); } } </script>
