I'm pretty new to Telerik, so I'm sure I've done something wrong here, but...
I can get the grid to work in my app. Examples of client side failure include no response when I mouse over a row and No postback on a row click. Strange thing is that paging seems to be working.
I've tried and failed at reproducing this behavior in a sample app. Could it be that I've added the script manager to the master page & not the child page? Does it need to be added to both? Is this a scripting failure or am I unable to figure out how to set the "react to a mouse over" setting?
My goal is pretty simple: Display a list of names & do an Ajax update in response to clicking on a row. I've reproduced this goal in the sample app, but can't get the real app to react to client side actions. Without the mouise over feedback the client will not know they can click on the row.

Hi Rich,
Unfortunately the provided information is not enough to conclude what is causing the issue on your end. Can you open a support ticket and send us the erroneous page/problem? What Skin are you using and how do you handle the ajaxification? Any additional information would be appreciated.

Have not been able to isolate the problem yet. I did notice that I recieve a JavaScript error when I double click a row:
Line: 11076
Char: 1
Error: 'this._tableView._owner' is null or not an object
Code: 0
So far I have tried these approaches to narrow down the problem:
- Tried binding different types of data (database, linq, custom objects), and using different types of fields. Result: No change; probably not related to data binding
- Tried different skins: Default, Web20, Mac. Result: No change (fails the same on all skins); probably not related to skin
- Tried it on a different page. Result: When I don't use the master page it works fine. I also don't get the above JavaScript error. When I use it on a page that uses a Master page it fails. Even created a super-simple throw away master. Still fails.
I'm stumped. It looks like it's related to using a master page, but when I try to create a sample project to upload I can't get it to fail (even with a Master page).

Hi Rich,
I remember I've seen the error before. Here is what a quick search results in:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/thread/b311D-bbctak.aspx
Can you please check if this is the same issue there? If that does not help, please post the Grid markup so that we can try to reproduce the error as well.

Hmmm... That wasn't it. I've been able to reproduce the problem in a project that has been submitted as part of support ticket (#132447).

Hello Rich,
It looks like the error is caused by the leading underscore of the Grid control ID when placed in content page of MasterPage. I have notified our developers and it will be fixed for the next update. You can change the ID meanwhile.

Is this still not fixed in the latest version (August 2008)?
I am using a grid on a master page and am getting the same error:
Error: 'this._tableView._owner' is null or not an object

Pavel,
The scenario is this: master page with telerik grid in content page. master page also uses telerik radpanel control.
I'm trying to use client side key data values but it appears that they do not work in this scenario due to the script error mentioned above.

Gerry,
Please see my post here. If you are experiencing the same issue, the cause could be that either your grid's ID starts with an underscore, or any of the parent control's ID starts with an underscore. Parent controls can be the Master Page's ContentPlaceHolder or any control which the grid is nested inside.
As you saw on this thread, Telerik says that the issue will be fixed. But when I submitted a bug report, with a complete patch of the source, they responded that the problem was too hard to fix.
I recommend changing your IDs to not start with underscores.
Good luck,
Matt

Matt,
At first glance I didn't think your problem applied to mine but after further checking I think that it does. I have a grid in a content page of a master page. In inspecting the generated HTML (view source) I see this is what is being generated for a grid with the name rgFields:
<div id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields" class="RadGrid RadGrid_Office2007" style="height:369px;width:738px;">
...
So you can see that the master page/content page results in a name with an _ in it which is the crux of the problem. I do not know of an easy way to work around this. Do you?
Thanks,
Gerry

I figured out that I could set the Master page id (e.g. this.ID = "someid") and that removed the initial underscore. Here is the generated HTML now:
<div id="ProgramViewMasterPageID_cpMain_rgFields" class="RadGrid RadGrid_Office2007" style="height:369px;width:738px;">
However, I still get the script error when I double click on the grid--the following output from Firefox firebug:
if(this._tableView&&this._tableView._own...KeyValues[this._itemIndexHierarchical]){
From the line of the error this._tableView is ok but this._tableView._owner is not. The source of the script is doing this:
this._tableView=$find(this._id.split("__")[0]);
Any ideas now why this._tableView._owner is undefined?
Thanks,
Gerry

A little more info. In looking at the generated name for each row you see that they are like so:
<tr class="GridRow_Office2007" id="ProgramViewMasterPageID_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__0">
<tr class="GridRow_Office2007" id="ProgramViewMasterPageID_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__1">
<tr class="GridRow_Office2007" id="ProgramViewMasterPageID_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__2">
etc. and they have the __ as part of the row name.

Actually setting the master page id broke a bunch of stuff with postback and so that approach doesn't work. When I set the id like that then on the ensuing postback my form variables were empty (e.g. txtInput.Text was "" and did not contain the text that was entered in the form).

Gerry,
ProgramViewMasterPageID_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__2
In that generated ID, what is the control _ctl0? It appears that there is a control with the id _ctl0. Telerik's javascript can only handle the double underscore in the final position. So I'd start by figuring out what _ctl0 is. Or, does the id rgFields actually end with an underscore? (rgFields_?)
You need to figure out where the extra underscore is coming from. Maybe if you open a support ticket, they might be able to help.
Good luck,
Matt

Matt,
that seemed to just be leftover artifacts from the master page's original name of _ctl0. However, as I mentioned above it appears that I can't override the master page and so must go with the name generated.
and thus i have for the div
<div id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields" class="RadGrid RadGrid_Office2007" style="height:369px;width:738px;">
and
<table class="MasterTable_Office2007" cellspacing="0" border="0" id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0" style="width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;table-layout:fixed;empty-cells:show;">
and for the rows:
<tr class="GridRow_Office2007" id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__0">
<tr class="GridAltRow_Office2007" id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__1">
<tr class="GridAltRow_Office2007" id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__2">
etc.
Would seem to be the same problem as you.

The sample zip is missing the master page. Although I expect that the sample will work because it will generate the controls with a $ in the name. I did the same thing--created a sample but the sample worked but it was because for whatever reason the controls are generated with ids that begin with a $. In my project that fails the controls all begin with _ctl.

Pavel,
Some more details. In looking at the generated HTML for my project that works what I have is this:
<div id="ctl00_cpMain_rgFields" class="RadGrid RadGrid_Office2007" style="height:369px;width:738px;">
The controls are all prefixed with a ctl00_cpMain where cpMain is the name of the content placeholder.
Likewise, the table id is ctl00_cpMain_rgFields_ctl00 and the rows are
ctl00_cpMain_rgFields_ctl00__0, ctl00_cpMain_rgFields_ctl00__1, etc.
However, here is the output from the project that doesn't work:
<div id="_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields" class="RadGrid RadGrid_Office2007" style="height:369px;width:738px;">
and table id is _ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0 and the rows are
_ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__0, _ctl0_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__1, etc.
From what has been documented it would appear that this is a known issue and will not work; am I correct? however, what is the work around to force asp.net to generate correct ids that will work with your grid?
I have played around with setting the master page id but it still doesn't work. If I set Master.ID in the constructor it does change the generation slightly but there is still the __ in the name. Here is an example:
Say I set Master.ID = "telerikbug" then what i get is:
telerikbug_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0 and the rows are
telerikbug_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__0, telerik_cpMain_rgFields__ctl0__1, etc.
In other words it removes the initial _ but leaves in the _ctl0 at the tail end of the name.

Hi Gerry,
Excuse me for omitting the MasterPage in my previous attachment. I have included it in this post.
Do you by any chance have <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/> in the web.config of your problematic project? If so, please remove it. There seems to be a similar problem when using this setting as explained here. You can read more about this in the following blog post.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. That is a good catch--yes, my site has that in there as it was originally in vs 2003, then 2005, and now in 2008. It explains why the site is rendering as such. I do not recall putting that setting in the file and so it must have been done by the VS conversion wizard.
I just tested the site without the setting and it is now working fine! I will have to do some more testing to make sure everything is ok.
As a side note it might be nice if somehow Telerik were to detect that setting and issue some kind of warning.
Thanks,
Gerry

Hi Gerry,
Thank you for your suggestion. I am not sure whether such approach is practical, considering the number of different settings that might prevent the controls from working properly. Nevertheless I will forward the idea to our developers for consideration.
