[Solved] Change the text that appears for NextPages / PrevPages

[Matt]

Hi,

I'm wondering if there is a way to specify what text I want for the "NextPages" / "PreviousPages" in the RadGrid PAger Control. I see there is a property for NextPagesToolTip but there is not one for NextPagesText. I would like to display "Next Pages" instead of "...".

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... I want to be 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next Pages

Thanks

<PagerStyle Mode="NumericPages" Position="TopAndBottom" CssClass="ListingsPageing" PrevPageImageUrl="/images/prev.jpg" NextPageImageUrl="/images/next.jpg"></PagerStyle>

Hi Matt,

One workaround will be to access the linkbutton with the text "..." from the Pager item in the code behind and then set it text as "NextPage". Give a try with the following code snippet and see whether it helps.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {

        if (e.Item is GridPagerItem)
        {
            GridPagerItem pager = (GridPagerItem)e.Item;
            LinkButton lnkbtn = (LinkButton)pager.FindControl("ctl22");
            if (lnkbtn != null)

        }
    }

Thanks

            LinkButton lnk1 = null;
            LinkButton lnk2 = null;
            LinkButton lnk3 = null;
            try
            {
              lnk1  = (LinkButton)pager.FindControl("ctl01");
            }
            catch { }

            try
            {
                lnk2 = (LinkButton)pager.FindControl("ctl11");
            }
            catch { }

            try

                lnk3 = (LinkButton)pager.FindControl("ctl12");
            }
            catch { }

            if (lnk3 != null)
            {
                if (lnk3.Text == "...")
                {
                    lnk3.Text = "NEXT PAGES";
                }
            }

                if (lnk2 != null)
                {

                    }
                }

            if(lnk1 != null)
            {
                if(lnk1.Text == "...")
                {
                    lnk1.Text = "PREV PAGES";
                }
            }
        }
