Client API OnRowClick first parameters

[dstj]

Hi,

In the client API online documentation here, it is said the parameters for OnRowClick are :

gridDataItem - tablerow instance

domEvent - dom event

But, using Firebug, I get this that the sender is a RadGrid object, not a gridDataItem object.

sender = Object_element=div#ctl15_rgrdMembers.RadGrid

Using the following function for example validates that the sender in not the row...

function RowClick(sender, eventArgs)
{
   alert(sender.get_element().getAttribute("id"));
}

When trying to access sender.get_element().attributes, I do not get the <tr> attributes but the RadGrid's <div> attributes.

Am I missing something? Do I read the documention wrong ? I need to access a custom attribute in the <tr>. How can I do it ?

Thanks,

dstj.

Hello Dominic,

Let me give a short explanation:

function RowClick(sender, eventArgs)

Arguments =  eventArgs (event arguments)

Argument 1: gridDataItem

eventArgs.get_gridDataItem();

Argument 2: domEvent

eventArgs.get_domEvent();

Regarding your question:

var row = eventArgs.get_domEvent().target.parentNode;

I hope this helps.

That explains it. Thanks a lot

So, "sender" is always the RadGrid and most often than not unused?

I did not find that subtlety in the documentation, I imagine this is a global concept for all RadControls Client API. I'll know for the next time...
