Disable PostBack on Dropped Item

[Shimon Dahan]

hi,

I use RadGrid to manipulate row promotion level. I Enabled the user to drag and drop rows to set the drraged item position.

I need to manipulate my datasbase when the dragging finish.

I wish to do this with javascript that invoke WCF service and pass the relevant parameters.

the problem is when the row dropped,  the page Posback to server and the user need to wait until the updating  to DB will finish.

I only need help to disable this postBack.

(When I use set_cancel method in the droppedEvent Nothing Changed and if I use it in the Drraging event the Dropped Event no Fired at all).

Thanks.
sorry about my English.. :)

Hello Shimon,

You can cancel the postback by canceling within OnRowDropping handler. This will prevent from postback.

Are you subscribing to the OnNodeDropping or OnNodeDropped event? Since OnNodeDropped happens after a node has been dropped it would most likely seem as though canceling it does nothing. As Nikolay suggested I believe you need to cancel the OnNodeDropping event (not OnNodeDropped).

I had the same issue and it took a while before I understand the problem.

You are using RowDropped event instead of RowDropping (yes you can't cancel a postback once it already happend)
