This is the second post of mine, which elaborates on how to implement drill down functionality in Telerik’s ASP.NET PivotGrid control. In the previous post I demonstrated how to display our Popup Dialog control containing a Telerik Grid with detailed information about the PivotGrid’s data cells. Today I will show you how to optimize the performance of the example provided in my previous post. The drill down demo from the first part is great, but it is not perfect. It has some weak parts and we can improve them. Here’s how.

This is part 1 of two blog posts in which I am going to show you how to implement drill down functionality in RadPivotGrid for ASP.NET AJAX and how to optimize it for better performance.

My advice: DO NOT EVER rely on execution delays, manual pauses, or Thread.Sleep() to handle your tests’ timing issues. Ever. Period. Instead, figure out exactly what condition you need to move forward with your test, then create an explicit wait for that condition. This is a rock-solid pattern that works in nearly every situation. Here’s a practical example for you using Telerik’s neat demo of our RadComboBox.

Automated testing for dynamic web applications and AJAX-enabled sites made easy – take a look at the Test Studio platform and see how easy it is to use and integrate with RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX or any other web components.

Users have been creating their articles in MS Word and have been expecting that they can simply copy and paste them in the web. Only developers know how hard this can be. But don’t worry, RadEditor is here to save the day

We're going to bust the myth that ASP.Net web forms cannot output HTML5 and mobile friendly user interfaces. In this article, Jeff will show you some tips and tricks to adapt your ASP.Net web forms project to handle formatting for browsers on mobile devices.

Our primary goal is to help you stay ahead of the technology curve. This is why we are often adding new skins (we now have 23!) so that your web sites and apps look trendy. The thing is, we can no longer support such a large number of skins and if we want to continue adding new, more modern skins, we need to stop the support for some old and not that popular ones: Forest, Hay, Simple, Sunset, Sitefinity and Transparent. Read more about how the transition will happen.

Read on for a deeper insight in our newest skins to see the direction we are taking. Is HTML5 and CSS3 the path you want us to walk? Go comment and let us know!

This how-to blog post demonstrates how to create a custom skin (in our case a Green variation of the existing Metro skin) using Telerik's Visual Style Builder tool for ASP.NET AJAX.
