Find a cell's corresponding column

[Pierre]

Hello,

Is there a way to know for which column a data cell is related to. Because I have to save a row, then put the next row in edit mode and give the focus to the cell which is in the same column than it was in the last selection. From now I almost made it but I can't find anyway to find the column index of the current selected cell.

Thanks 
Pierre

Hi Pierre,

This is an example i have tried,it shows the selected cell's column,please check if this helps you.

ASPX:

<asp:Panel ID="ConfiguratorPanel1" runat="server" Style="overflow: hidden; margin-bottom: 15px;">
           <div id="cellSelectedEvents" style="width: 47%; padding: 8px; float: left; height: 100px;
               overflow: auto; border: 1px solid #ccc;">
           </div>
       </asp:Panel>
       <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
       </asp:ScriptManager>
       <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" GridLines="None">
           <MasterTableView ClientDataKeyNames="CustomerID">
           </MasterTableView>
           <ClientSettings AllowKeyboardNavigation="true">
               <ClientEvents OnCellSelected="cellSelected"></ClientEvents>
               <Selecting CellSelectionMode="MultiColumn"></Selecting>
           </ClientSettings>
       </telerik:RadGrid>

JAVASCRIPT:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function cellSelected(sender, args)
 {
  var columnName = args.get_column().get_uniqueName();
  var customer = args.get_gridDataItem().getDataKeyValue("CustomerID")
  var cellInfo = "Cell: " + columnName + " for " + customer + " <b>selected</b><br/>";
  $get("cellSelectedEvents").innerHTML += cellInfo;
 }
</script>

Thanks

your example works fine on the mouse click but I can't get the column name of the focus cell with it because the OnCellSelected event is not fired when the focus change. Is there any event that fires by the RadGrid relative to focus change ?

Hi,

Please try the following code snippet.
In ItemCreated.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
    {
  GridDataItem gd=(GridDataItem)e.Item;
  foreach (TableCell cell1 in gd.Cells)
        {
            int index = gd.ItemIndex;
            cell1.Attributes.Add("OnClick", "OnFocus('" + index + "','" + cell1.ClientID + "')");
        }
    }
}

JAVACRIPT:

<script type="text/javascript">
  function OnFocus(index)
 {
   alert(index);
 }
</script>

Thanks
