[Solved] Approach to cancel onRowSelected based on column choice

[Jason Finch]

I have a grid which has a hyperlink column input via a ClientTemplate.
I have wired up the onRowSelected event.

What I would like to know is how best cancel the onRowSelected event when the column with the hyperlink is triggered,  and let the event continue when any other non hyperlink column is clicked.

As at the moment, clicking the hyperlink causes a page get but also throws an error because onRowSelected is triggered as well.

Any help appreciated.
Thanks, Jason

EDIT: Nope the onRowSelected still fires first.

Looks like the following snippet should help me out.

$("a").live('click', function(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
  });

Hi Jason Finch,

Row selection is using live events too and that event handler executes before yours. The solution I came up with is to use the onclick attribute of the link and stop propagation there:

function click(e) {
        $.Event(e).stopPropagation();
    }


columns.Template(o => { }).ClientTemplate("<a class='test' href='#' onclick='click(event)'>click</a>");
