[Solved] Custom buttom filter

[AereoN]

I've been using this code on javascript to perform filtering on key press.
var tableView = $find("<%# ((GridItem)Container).OwnerTableView.ClientID %>");
tableView.filter("Name", sender.get_value(), "Contains");

But can anyone tell me how to do I archive this on code behind via a button?

Hi,

You have to set the filterexpression of the grid manually. Check out the following online demo which illustrates how to implement filtering on a button click:
Web Mail Grid

Also you can try the same approach given in the following document on the button's click event:
Applying default filter on initial load

Thanks
