[Solved] Edit form (popup) from server side

[wnl]

Hi,
where can I found a sample of building edit form (popup) for grid in c# (server side) (no in html).

I have a question about popup edit form yet: is it possible to check datatype of data in column (e.g. datatype) and automatically in popup edit form show radtadepicker instead of textbox (all in server side code)?
Thanks.

Hello,

Checkout the following forum link which discusses similar scenario:
Customize the editor depending on the data type
Access the item as GridEditFormItem in ItemDataBound event and follow the suggestion in the forum for adding controls.

Also go through the demo for Window Editing and see whether it meets your requirement of customizing the edit form.

Thanks,
Princy.

Ok, but how can I check a datatype of columns in ItemDataBound? '
And when I make:

 editeditem["ValueCol"].Controls.Clear();

my automatically update/insert doesn't work.

Hi Jaromin,

Can you please supply some additional information on the required functionality?
Are you trying to develop something like cell-editing- i.e. showing the popup, but relating it only to a given cell, rather than the whole row?
Any additional information will help us better address the question at hand.

Kind regards,
Yavor

I made this in different way.

My next question is: how to change values in popup edit form (in edit mode, not insert) before this form will load eg. I have value: "2010/01/01 00:00:00" in edit and I want to change to: "2010/01/01".

Hello Jaromin,

I suppose you want to format a control value when the grid is in edit mode. Here's an example for the same:

c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
        {
            GridEditableItem item = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtbx = (TextBox)item["DOB"].Controls[0];

            txtbx.Text = Convert.ToDateTime(txtbx.Text).ToShortDateString();
        }
    }

Thanks

Shinu.
