Find Dropdown Control in GridTemplateColumn and change index (ClientSide)

[Laz]

Hi,
i want to change the Index for every Dropdown - List in a GridTemplateColumn. Everything Clientside.

My Problem is to find the Dropdownlist:

        function ColumnDecisionExecute() {
            var DataItems = $find("<%=rdgWI.ClientID %>").get_masterTableView().get_dataItems();
            for (i = 0; i < DataItems.length; i++) {
                var item = DataItems[i].FindControl("ddlDecision");
                alert(item);
            }
        }

Here the RadGrid:

            <telerik:RadGrid ID="rdgWI"
                             runat="server"
                             AutoGenerateColumns="False"
                             GridLines="None"
                             AllowPaging="False"
                             AllowSorting="true">
                <HeaderContextMenu>
                    <CollapseAnimation Type="OutQuint" Duration="200"></CollapseAnimation>
                </HeaderContextMenu>

                <ClientSettings>
                    <Scrolling AllowScroll="True" UseStaticHeaders="true" />
                    <ClientEvents OnGridCreated="GetGridObject"></ClientEvents>
                </ClientSettings>

                <MasterTableView ShowHeadersWhenNoRecords="true" AllowSorting="True" ShowHeader="true" runat="server">

                    <RowIndicatorColumn>
                        <HeaderStyle Width="20px"></HeaderStyle>
                    </RowIndicatorColumn>
                    <ExpandCollapseColumn>
                        <HeaderStyle Width="20px"></HeaderStyle>
                    </ExpandCollapseColumn>
                    <Columns>
                        <telerik:GridBoundColumn  DataField="WI" UniqueName="WiId" Visible="false">
                        </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                        <telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Decision" SortExpression="" UniqueName="Decision" Visible="false">
                            <ItemTemplate>
                                <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlDecision" DataSource='<%# GetDataSource(Eval("WTask")) %>' DataValueField="Description" DataTextField="Shorttext" runat="server" CssClass="DT" Width='<%# GetWidth() %>'></asp:DropDownList>
                             </ItemTemplate>
                        </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                        </Columns>
                </MasterTableView>
                <FilterMenu>
                    <CollapseAnimation Type="OutQuint" Duration="200"></CollapseAnimation>
                </FilterMenu>
            </telerik:RadGrid>

Hello Laz,

Checkout the following code library which demonstrates how to get a reference to the DOM element of a server-side control (placed in GridTemplateColumn) on the client using a global registry that keeps control ID's.
