[Solved] Access EditItemTemplate's text box in javascript

[Bharani]

Hi ,
I am trying to access the EditItemTemplate's text box control id(tbEntityID) in javascript to assign a new value to it. I searched many forums solution and tried many way, but no luck for me. following is the code snippet what i've followed.
Please help me to sort out this problem.


ASPX

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Client Id" UniqueName="txtEntityId" EditFormColumnIndex="0" DataField="EntityID">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblEntityID" Text='<%# Eval("EntityID", "{0:C}") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="tbEntityID" Text='<%# Bind("EntityID") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

C#

protected void GrdBPOClients_OnItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{

            if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
            {
                GridEditableItem editedItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;

                System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox textbx = (System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox)editedItem.FindControl("tbEntityID");

            }
}

JavaScript

function OnClientEntityClose(oWnd, oArg)

{

//get the transferred arguments

var arg = oArg.get_argument();

if (arg)                          {

if (arg.NewEntityId!= '')

document.getElementById('textbx').value = arg.NewEntityId;                           }

}

Thanks in Advance

Is there anybody faced this issue?

Hello Bharani,

I hope the following code library which demonstrates how to get a reference to the DOM element of a server-side control (placed in GridTemplateColumn) on the client using a global registry that keeps control ID's, will help you in this.
