For the time being you can use the following JavaScript workaround: <telerik:RadButton ID="radbtnVehicleList" runat="server" Text="Google" Skin="Default" Width="200px" NavigateUrl="http://www.telerik.com" ButtonType="LinkButton" AutoPostBack="false" Target="_blank"> </telerik:RadButton> <script> Telerik.Web.UI.Button.NavigationFunctionality.prototype = { clicked: function (ev) { var that = this; that.base.clicked(ev); that._handleNavigateUrl(); }, _handleNavigateUrl: function () { var that = this, target = that.options.navigateTarget, url = that.options.navigateUrl; if (!url) return; if (target && target == "_blank") window.open(url); else if (target && target == "_parent") window.parent.location.href = url; else if (target && target == "_top") window.top.location.href = url; else if (!target || target == "_self") window.location.href = url; else { var targetFrame = $("iframe[name='" + target + "']").get(0) || $("frame[name='" + target + "']").get(0) || $("#" + target).get(0); if (targetFrame && targetFrame.tagName.toLowerCase().indexOf("frame") > -1) { targetFrame.setAttribute("src", url); } else if (target) { window.open(url, target); } } } }; </script>
