    PROJECT DESCRIPTION
    In some scenarios you may want to select rows in r.a.d.grid, then use paging to view another grid page and on return to have the previously selected rows preserved. Using the client-side selection mechanism this can be achieved by saving the selected rows indexes in a client-side hash object with key the PageIndex. When the GridCreated client-side event is raised the selected rows for the current page are restored from the hash. As the javascript objects are not persisted after postbacks, the hash is saved in a hidden input field and on every page load its value is restored.

    PROJECT DESCRIPTION of Client-Side Row Selection Persisted With Paging and Sorting (project attachment name: pagingsortingwithclientsideselecting-classic.zip)

    The project demonstrates how client-side selecting can be preserved with paging and sorting functionality. Using the client-side selection mechanism the selected rows indexes are saved in a client-side hash object with key the PageIndex. When the GridCreated client-side event is raised (when the request from the server is over) the selected rows for the current page index are restored from the client-side hash.
    As the sorting changes the item indexes in the pages, we need to update them on every sort. That is why we need a unique id of every item and use two Hashtable server-side objects:
    - selectedItemsPerPage - save the unique ids of all selected items per page, i.e. key=pageIndex, value=selectedItemsIds per the corresponding page index, separated by comas;
    - selectedIndexesPerPage - the same like the above object, but with value the corresponding item indexes per page (to update the client-side hash object with its value by pass its value the a hidden input field).
    On PreRender server-side event handler we pass the value of the selectedIndexesPerPage only for the current page index of the grid. On every request to the server (on Sort and Page) we save the current page selected indexes and their unique ids in the both Hashtables. On Sort we update the selectedItemsPerPage and selectedIndexesPerPage keys and values due to the selected items unique ids and corresponding to the new ordered grid data source.
    As the JavaScript objects are not persisted after postbacks, the client-side hash object value is saved in a hidden input field and on every page load its value is restored. To preserve the value of the both Hashtables, we save/get them in/from two Session objects.
