ClientSelectColumn: SelectAll(header) event

[Jimmy Vithalani]

Hi All,

I am using 2009 q2 of Telerik. 

I have a grid with client select column and I want to show an alert on uncheck of client select checkbox.

I captured the event deselecing for the checkbox and shown alert.

But the problem is when I do DeSelect All from header check box, I am getting alert for all the rows. I need an event for DeSelectAll so that I can set a flag and do not show alert for all rows, and show only one alert.

Which event I can use for DeSelect All?

Thanks.

Jimmy.

Hello Jimmy,

 You can attach an 'onclick' event to the CheckBox control in HeaderItem to show an alert when deselecting all items. And since its is overriding the Header CheckBox behaviour, you need to select/deselect the rows explicitly from client side. Check out the following code and I hope it helps you.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridClientSelectColumn UniqueName="ClientSelectColumn">

</telerik:GridClientSelectColumn>

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Item is GridHeaderItem)

{

GridHeaderItem headeritem = (GridHeaderItem)e.Item;

CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)headeritem["ClientSelectColumn"].Controls[0];

chk.Attributes.Add("onclick", "ClientSelect(this);");

}

}

JAVA SCRIPT:

<script type="text/javascript">
function ClientSelect(checkbox)
  {
    var grid = $find("<%=RadGrid1.ClientID%>");
    var master = grid.get_masterTableView();
    if (checkbox.checked == true)
     {
       master.selectAllItems();
     }
    else
     {
       alert("You are de-selecting the items");
       master.clearSelectedItems()
     }
  }
</script>

Hi Shinu,

Thanks for the reply.

Actually last night I tried the same thing, attaching event to ClientSelect checkbox of header in ItemDataBound, and it worked.

Thanks though for the answer, I will mark it.
