Find grid with javascript, might return null

[Wired_Nerve]

Finally figured out how to get the code on the master page to deal with this... Would delete this post, but I do not see an option...










I have master page and on this page I have a javascript section that I need to have search the current page to see if a radgrid is on that page.

I tried 

   var control = document.getElementById('<%= RadGridStudents.ClientID %>');

                if (control == null) {

but it returns an error because the grid is not there - of course.

What is the best way in javascript to see if the current page has an element on it before continuing...

   var div, i;

                // Loop through all divs, check if they contain the RadGridStudents

                divs = document.getElementsByTagName('div');

                for (i = 0; i < divs.length; i++) {

                    var rg = divs[i].id;

                    var result = rg.search('RadGridStudents');

                    if (result != -1) {

                        alert(result);

                    }

                    

                }

Hello Warren,

Please take a look at the Getting RadGrid client object help topic to see how the desired functionality can be implemented.

I hope this helps.
