Hello Padmaja,

You can not get the ClientID of your textbox inside the user control, because the user control is an INaming Container - this means that it changes the ClientIDs of the controls which are placed inside it. This is general ASP.NET knowledge and you can reproduce the issue by using a standard control.

What I can suggest is to try passing the ClientID directly from the server, e.g.:
strScript += "top.$get('" + btnRebindGrid.ClientID + "').click();" 
 
Another option is to find the actual client ID of the button by using the IEDevToolBar or Firebug tools and hard-code it.

Best wishes,

Hello Padmaja,

You can try out the following code to get the client id of the textbox in the usercontrol on client:
c#:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditFormItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
        {
            GridEditFormItem editFormItem = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
            UserControl user = editFormItem.FindControl(GridEditFormItem.EditFormUserControlID) as UserControl;
            TextBox txt =(TextBox)user.FindControl("TextBoxID");
            txt.Attributes.Add("onChange", "return textChange( " + txt.ClientID + "); ");

        }
    }

js:

<script type="text/javascript">

 function textChange(clientId)
  {
    alert(clientId);
  }

</script>

Thanks
Princy.

Thank you very much for your support.

This code what you said was correct and I can assign onclick event int RadGrid1_ItemCommand.
