Client event ondatabound?

[Laura]

I see in  the documentation here:
documentation radGrid client OnDataBound

When trying to add this to my grid, it says it does not exist. I am using aspnet ajax Q2 2008 version.

Is there a client side ondatabound?

What I really need is on the client side to know when there are no more outstanding asynchronous events. I need to run client side code after a grid has been completely rendered on the screen after I call mygrid.bind(); on the server.

If there is no ondatabound client side event, how would be the best way for me to signal that the grid has been completed bound?

Thanks,
Laura

Hi Laura,

OnDataBound is available with our Q3 release - you can use OnGridCreated to achieve your goal.

Thank you Vlad. The client side ondatabound only works with client side databinding. So if I bind the grid on the C# side, this does not work, correct?

And if I want to bind on the client, I have to first set the datasource before I bind, right?

I am trying to do that, but I need to use masterTable.set_dataSource(<JSON format  datasource>); My datasource is defined using sqldatasource and all I have is an ID for the sqldatasource. How would I specify the JSON fomat for this?

My final question, and the real problem I am having is this:

What I really need is on the client side to know when there are no more outstanding asynchronous events. I need to run client side code after a grid has been completely rendered on the screen after I call mygrid.bind(); or onPageIndexChanged on the server.

Basically, any time the grid has been rebound to new data, I need to know when it was rebound and all outstanding asynchronous events have completed.

Thanks,
Laura

Hello Laura,

Try using the OnGridCreated client-side event of the grid for your purpose. It is fired after the grid is created/recreated on the client, on each postback/callback.

Regarding the client-side data binding of RadGrid, please review the below examples for detailed information:

Let me know if this helps.
