[Solved] Client selection gets lost on postback

[Malibongwe]

Hi Guys,

 I am having a problem where I have a grid that has client selection enabled. What happens in this grid is that when I select an item or record in the grid, the client selection gets lost on post-back.I have set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property to true. If I turn this property to false, the selection is possible, but then there is o postback.

What could be causing this?

regards

Hello Malibongwe,

RadGrid loses its current selection when the data is sorted, a new group or filter is added, or when the current page changes. If you want the client-side selection to persist across these events, please review the following help article:

Hi Pavlina,

 Thanks for your very prompt reply. I have implemented the solution on that link. However, when I trap the server side SelectedIndexChanged event of the grid, there are no selected indexes. The selected items collection also has nothing.

How could I ensure that I trap the selected items on the server side?

Best regards
