Force close editform

[Iris]

I'm using editForm template and I have a Cancel button on my edit form. This cancel button has CancelCommand name. All is well if I click the Cancel button in normal condition and it closes the edit form as expected. However, if I have validation errors on the editForm, clicking the Cancel button does not close the editForm and I suspect that it causes validation to be fired.

Can anyone tell me how to close the editForm regardless whether I have validation errors on the form or not?

Thanks.

Hi,

In order to close the edit form, you can access the Cancel button in ItemDataBound event and set CausesValidation as false. Here is the sample code.
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

{

  if (e.Item is GridEditFormItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)

  {

    GridEditFormItem item = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;

    Button btn = (Button)item.FindControl("cancelbtn");
     btn.CausesValidation = false;

  }

}

Thanks,
Princy.
