Client-side API changes

Due to the migration of the RadSplitter control to the ASP.NET Ajax framework and to the Telerik.Web.UI suite, the client-side API is completely changed to match the naming convention of the new framework.

Event handlers

The signature for client-side events has been unified, so that all event handlers have at most two arguments:

  1. The first argument (sender) points to the client instance of the object firing the event.
  2. The second argument (eventArgs) is a holder for the old arguments passed in the respective handler.

To cancel an event (which can be cancelled) you now call "set_cancel(true)" on the eventArgs argument instead of returning false from the event handler:

function BeforeCollapse(sender, eventArgs)
{
    eventArgs.set_cancel(true);
}
