Telerik RadMenu: Save information from last item - asp.net

I'm dealing with a form split into tabs in a RadMenu. I need to save the information entered on a tab when the user leaves it. I know there's an ItemClick event for RadMenu, but is there a way to capture the information on the previous tab with that event?
I'm using VB.NET, if it matters.

Are you certain that this is RadMenu and not RadTabStrip?
It would make more sense to be the tabstrip.
There is a nice demo that demonstrates this approach with tabstrip:

I need to display a pop up table on clicking a button in vb.net. How do i do this without the gridviews just on plain button click?

I need a table to pop up or flash on the users screen when a button is clicked
It is a reference table, users can go back and check the codes while filling a form. This is to be done vb.net. Please help me i need the simplest solution possible
in my opinion:
1) If you don't insist on formatting and you would like to only display table data, you can simply write the data into string, which you will display in a MsgBox dialog. You'll probably will have to take care about partial string lenghts in columns (trim, or complete with spaces to a specific length) and then it will look OK. Bellow is an example of such data (only a test dialog) without any trimming/completeng:
2) For a serious table, you'd have to either use datagrdiveiw (or such) in a separate form, or draw your table using GDI, which would be a rather complicated and eccentric method.

Should I use Button or TextBlock?

I have two options. I need 48 of a certain type control; it needs to respond to clicks and taps (for touch devices).
I could use Buttons, using the TextButtonStyle, and the Click event. Or I could use TextBlock, with the Tapped event.
I reckon buttons may be more "expensive" to create. OTOH, although I believe "Tapped" is also called when the user clicks the component, this makes me a little nervous due to its nomenclature, I guess.
Another difference is that a button takes up only the width necessary, whereas a TextBlock takes everything; and I want the underlying Grid to be tappable, so the TextBlock is kind of a problem that way. Is there a property that will make it more modest like the button?
There is design guidance for Windows Store apps on when and how to use buttons at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/windows/apps/hh465470. Based on your description and this guidance, it sounds like buttons are the way to go. Responding to click events is what they were made for, and TextBlocks add the extra issues that you describe.

How to make an entire jqGrid disabled/readonly

How can I make an entire jqGrid disabled/readonly?
I have a page with a logical "edit section" which I show when the user selects something to edit, and hide when the user is done editing (save or cancel). While the edit section is shown, I disable several other elements on the page. I would like to disable their ability to click in the jqGrid, so they can't change selected rows, re-sort, etc. But I cannot find a way to disable/enable the grid as a whole.
Apologies if this has been answered already - other questions seemed to focus on disabling only certain behaviors within the jqGrid.
Edit: Preferably, I'd like an approach that isn't dependent on yet another 3rd-party addon. Nothing wrong with them, of course! But my client has a degree of reluctance with them, so my life would be a little easier with a purely jQuery/jQueryUI/jqGrid solution. :)
You could use blockUI to block the grid.
Try using $("#lui_" + myGridId).show().
The grid has created this overlay internally an uses it as one part of the loader message.
You can just show it or hide it and it will disable/enable the grid for you.

Flex - MATE Framework

I am new to MATE framework and I have been digging around some sample codes so that i can do the following:
On clicking a button (on a canvas)
Display a Panel.
The issue is that i am not trying to pass any value hence not sure of how/ what should be defined as sourcekey and targetkey. If this is the case, then how should one define the propertyinjector details.
most examples that are floating around contains details of reading data from a source and populating the same on a UI/ Display component.
Thanks

for this one you shouldn't use propertyInjection you should dispatch an event (you can make it custom), then you need to catch the event in the appropriate place and simply do whatever you want with it.

How can I disable an individual item in a combo box in Flex so that it is not clickable?

I want to create a combobox in flex which will take three values, Available, Unavailable, and Busy. The constraint is, I should not allow user to go directly from Unavailable to Busy. So when a User is selected Unavailable, I should keep the Busy item disabled (unselectable), but a user will be able to go directly from Available to Busy. I chouldn't find a straight forward way to disable an item in combobox in Flex. How can I do that?
Have you considered using radio buttons rather than a combo box? It's clear how to do this for radio buttons, for one thing. Also, it can often be friendlier to present the available options without requiring a click to reveal them. (Especially if, as in this case, you are adding the possibility that an option is "available, but not possible for you right now for some reason not shown in this combo-box item").
If you really want a combo-box, you can use the click event to display it in a non-standard fashion by probably changing its style; and then, if clicked anyway, Then, in the selected event, reject the choice (hopefully with an indication of why),
Or, if you want to simply remove it from the list, you can have the click listener event repopulate the source list each time, based on conditions. But that might be confusing to the user, too.

(note for NoScript users you must have 163.com and 126.com at least temporarily allowed to be
able to properly see this page)
it works very well even though I added the code for being able to properly handle keyboard
events in the dropdown list

Thanks again for the good work
