Data Loading Modes

  • Demo Configurator
  • Loading modeOnPageLoad

There are three options for loading the data in a RadHtmlChart:

  • OnPageLoad — the data from the specified data source is populated on page load.
  • AfterPageLoad — the data from the specified data source is populated after the page is loaded.
  • FromCode — the data from the specified data source is populated via callback. In this case you should call the client-side method loadData() when you want to load the data.
  • DefaultVB.aspx
  • DefaultVB.aspx.vb
  • scripts.js
  • styles.css
