CommandItem Postback

[Dave]

Not sure if this is possible but thought it would not hurt to ask.  I am creating a grid dynamically on my pages that is designed to display open employment positions.  I've followed the example in the help for creating a command item which will be used to allow applicants to submit their resume by opening a radWindow that has all the pertinent fields and upload capability.

What I don't want is the postback when the command button is clicked, since I intend (haven't tried yet so not sure I can) to set it as the opener element on my radWindowManager window and a server trip really isn't needed since I am doing it all client side.

So, is it possible to disable postbacks on this item?  I tried doing it at the button level when I add it and in the different MasterTableViews etc, but nothing obvious jumped out at me.

Also, if this is a silly approach let me know so I can find a different way to implement this.

Seems this is a moot point, once I added the functionality so the new command item template button was set as the opener element for the radWindow it stopped the postback.  Here is my code for anyone that one day tries something similar:
(note: If you see any room for improvement I would love to hear it.)

This is the class to add the command item:

Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports Telerik.Web.UI
Imports System.Web.UI

Public Class EmpItemTemplate
    Implements ITemplate

    Protected addResume As Button

    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()
    End Sub

    Public Sub InstantiateIn(ByVal container As System.Web.UI.Control) Implements System.Web.UI.ITemplate.InstantiateIn
        addResume = New Button
        addResume.ID = "addResume"
        addResume.Text = "Submit Your Resume"

        container.Controls.Add(addResume)
    End Sub

End Class

And this is the page code:

    Private Sub GenerateGrid()
        Dim rgNew As New RadGrid
        Dim colNew As GridBoundColumn

        'Basig Grid Settings
        rgNew.ID = "rgEmpTable"
        rgNew.AutoGenerateColumns = False
        rgNew.Skin = "Vista"
        rgNew.DataSourceID = "sqlPositions"
        rgNew.ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect = True
        rgNew.AllowMultiRowSelection = True

        'Add Command Item Submit Resume Button
        rgNew.MasterTableView.CommandItemDisplay = GridCommandItemDisplay.Top
        rgNew.MasterTableView.CommandItemTemplate = New EmpItemTemplate

        'Setup custom event handlers
        AddHandler rgNew.ItemDataBound, AddressOf EmpGrid_ItemDataBound
        AddHandler rgNew.ItemCreated, AddressOf EmpGrid_ItemCreated

        'Add Columns
        Dim colSel = New GridClientSelectColumn
        colSel.UniqueName = "SelCol"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colSel)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_id"
        colNew.HeaderText = "employment_id"
        colNew.Visible = False
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_date"
        colNew.HeaderText = "Post Date"
        colNew.DataFormatString = "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_title"
        colNew.HeaderText = "Job Title"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_type"
        colNew.HeaderText = "Position Type"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_city"
        colNew.HeaderText = "City"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_state"
        colNew.HeaderText = "State"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "employment_positions"
        colNew.HeaderText = "# Positions"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        colNew = New GridBoundColumn
        colNew.DataField = "recruiter_name"
        colNew.HeaderText = "Recruiter"
        rgNew.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(colNew)

        'Add grid to page
        SubmitDiv.Controls.Add(rgNew)
    End Sub

    Protected Sub EmpGrid_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs)
        If TypeOf e.Item Is GridHeaderItem Then
            Dim header As GridHeaderItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridHeaderItem)
            Dim chkbx As CheckBox = DirectCast(header("SelCol").Controls(0), CheckBox)
            chkbx.Visible = False
        End If
    End Sub

    Protected Sub EmpGrid_ItemCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs)
        If TypeOf e.Item Is GridCommandItem Then
            Dim rgItem As GridCommandItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridCommandItem)
            Dim itemResume As Button = DirectCast(rgItem.FindControl("addResume"), Button)
            SubmitResume.OpenerElementID = itemResume.ClientID
        End If
    End Sub
