[Solved] client side row select

[Patrick Rubeski]

I'm looking for a way to select a row in the grid via client side code.  I am trying to select the first row in the grid each time the page loads. Does anyone know of way to do this?  I've been searching the posts for awhile now and haven't found anything related.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Hi Patrick Rubeski,

If you need to show the first row as selected you can do this:


.ClientEvents(events => events.OnLoad("onLoad"))


<script type="text/javascript">
    function onLoad() {
        $('#Grid tr:has(td):first').addClass('t-state-selected');
    }
</script>

Kind regards,

is there a way to select this row in a way that actually triggers the OnRowSelected client event?

Hello Patrick Rubeski,

Try this

$('#Grid tbody tr:has(td):first').click()
