How to add an edit hyperlink field on radgrid?

[Marcus]

Hi,

I have a radgrid that has an editcommandcolumn in the form of a button (ButtonType="PushButton"). This pops-up an edit control (ascx) in the automated way which is all fine.

I want some other fields on my grid-row to hyperlink to the same edit popup. Does anyone knwo how this can be done?

Thanks!

Hello Marcus,

You can either display the edit form on clicking the hyperlink control of a HyperLinkColumn as shown below:
aspx:

<telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn Text="EditDetails" UniqueName="HyperlinkCol"></telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn>

cs:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            int index = dataItem.ItemIndex;
            HyperLink hyplnk = (HyperLink)dataItem["HyperlinkCol"].Controls[0];
            hyplnk.Attributes.Add("onClick", "return ShowEditPopUp('" + index + "');");
        }
     }

js:

 function ShowEditPopUp(editedRow)
    {
       $find("<%= RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ClientID %>").editItem(editedRow);
    }

or you can use a GridButtonColumn with its CommandName set as Edit as shown in the code below:
aspx:

<telerik:GridButtonColumn CommandName="Edit" ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="EditDetails"  UniqueName="column1">
 </telerik:GridButtonColumn>

Thanks

I have a question related to this. How would you reference a radgrid within a radgrid in the ShowEditPopup function?

Here is my situation: I have a radgrid with an edit popup as a form template. In that popup form I have another radgrid and I would like to have another popup window using the hyperlink column as explained in this forum.

I receive an compile error when I directly reference my second radgrid (rgRadGrid2) in the function:
    function ShowEditPopUp(editedRow)
    {
       $find("<%= rgRadGrid2.MasterTableView.ClientID %>").editItem(editedRow);
    }
Error:
Error    3    'Telerik.Web.UI.RadGrid' does not contain a definition for 'rgRadGrid2' and no extension method 'rgRadGrid2' accepting a first argument of type 'Telerik.Web.UI.RadGrid' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)  

So I am assuming that I have to reference radgrid1 first and then within this one establish a reference to radgrid2. I have tried various alternatives but no success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Is there anyone who can help me. I am trying to reference a detailtable in JS. I have searched this form, tried various alternatives, but nothing worked:
Here is what I thought would work:
       $find("<%= rgXray.MasterTableView.DetailTables[0].ClientID %>").editItem(editedRow);
But this does not work. I cannot imagine that this is so hard to do.

Again, any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Michael Kremer
