How to run telerik RadWindow from code behind

Question

I am trying to run telerik rad window from code behind. But I have some issues. I don't know is it important but I am trying to run rad window from button clicked in edit mode from rad grid.

RadWindow window1 = new RadWindow();
window1.NavigateUrl = "http://www.google.com";
window1.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;
window1.ID = "RadWindow1";
window1.Width = 500;
window1.Height = 300;
window1.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;    
rwm_WindowManager.Windows.Add(window1);

On the page I also have RadAjaxManager and rwm_WindowManager I put in RadAjaxPanel.
Problem is that this rad window never shows up. There are no errors but no rad window also.

    dynamic data = new[] {

    RadGrid1.DataSource = data;
}
protected void RadGrid1_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)

    if (e.CommandName == "OpenWindow")
    {
        //RadWindowManager
        RadWindow window1 = new RadWindow();
        window1.NavigateUrl = "http://www.google.com";
        window1.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;
        window1.ID = "RadWindow1";
        window1.Width = 500;
        window1.Height = 300;
        RadWindowManager1.Windows.Add(window1);

    }
}

put your RadWindowManager inside RadAjaxPanel.

Answer 2

I just had a similar issue. I resolved it like so:

RadAjaxManager.GetCurrent(Page).ResponseScripts.Add(String.Format("$find('{0}').show();", window1.ClientID));

My applications use RadAjax which makes the VisibleOnPageLoad property problematic, so I avoid it altogether.
