[Solved] Button in GroupFooter

[James Lever]

Hi guys/girls

i'm trying to put a button in the group footer in the code behind with the event item Databound
Code snippet

if(e.Item is GridGroupFooterItem)
            {
                var Footer = (GridGroupFooterItem) e.Item;

                var button = new Button();
                button.Click += Button1_Click;
                button.ID = "btnNext";
                button.CausesValidation = false;
                button.UseSubmitBehavior = true;
                button.Text = "Next";

                Footer.Cells[5].Controls.Add(button);
            }

but when i Click on the button it's posting back but not doing the Click Even ??
anyone know how to fix this
Thanks

Hello James,

Please use ItemCreated to add controls/events. ItemDataBound will be called only during data-binding. If the grid child controls are recreated from ViewState the grid will not raise ItemDataBound.

is it possible to have a code snippet on how to do this
Thanks

Hello James,

You can do that in the same manner as in the ItemDataBound event with your code snippet. Also consider using column unique names to identify the column cells instead of cell indices.
