Get RadGrid cell value using Context menu

[Fred Mare]

Hi

I would like to get a radgrid cells value and controls when a context menu item is selected on the client side. How would I do this?

Thank You

Hi,

You can use a client-side approach to populate the details for a row. With this online demo, try the following modifications:

<telerik:RadContextMenu ID="RadMenu1" runat="server" OnItemClick="RadMenu1_ItemClick"
       EnableRoundedCorners="true" EnableShadows="true">
       <Items>
           <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="Quick view">
               <Items>
                   <telerik:RadMenuItem>
                       <ItemTemplate>
                         <div id="productName"></div>

                       </ItemTemplate>
                   </telerik:RadMenuItem>
               </Items>
           </telerik:RadMenuItem>
           <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="Add" />
           <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="Edit" />
           <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="Delete" />
       </Items>
   </telerik:RadContextMenu>

function RowContextMenu(sender, eventArgs) {
              * * *

               sender.get_masterTableView().selectItem(sender.get_masterTableView().get_dataItems()[index].get_element(), true);


               var selectedRow = sender.get_masterTableView().get_selectedItems()[0];
               var productName =  sender.get_masterTableView().getCellByColumnUniqueName(selectedRow, "ProductName").innerHTML;

               $get("productName").innerHTML = productName;

               menu.show(evt);

              * * *
           }

Note, that with this approach the columns should be rendered. If you want to make them invisible, you should set their Display property to false.
