i am using client select column. allowing multiple row selection.

Hello Naresh,

Most easiest way to prevent the unwanted behavior is to disable the selection on row click and use only the check boxes instead.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
    function RowDeselecting(sender, args)
    {
        if (args.get_domEvent().target)
        {
            if (args.get_domEvent().target.type != "checkbox")
                args.set_cancel(true);
        }
        else if (!args.get_domEvent().srcElement)
            args.set_cancel(true);
    }
</script>

<ClientEvents OnRowDeselecting="RowDeselecting" OnRowSelecting="RowDeselecting" />

Otherwise you will have to use cumbersome workarounds to avoid the problems under in the different browsers.
