Grid dummy columns

[iomega 55]

Hi. I need to have 2 dummy columns (column with no reference to a field in the database) in a radgrid. Each one of these columns need to have a javascript call, this javascript must be set on the itemdatabound event placing the value of the 3rd column (client id) inside the javascript call of the previous two dummy columns.

How can I do this? Create the 2 dummy columns and reference them in the itemdatabound for placing the javascript on it.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Iomega,

You could try adding two GridTemplateColumns with labels into theirs ItemTemplates:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Column1" UniqueName="Column1">
                  <ItemTemplate>
                      <asp:Label runat="server" ID="Label1"></asp:Label>
                  </ItemTemplate>
              </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                <telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Column1" UniqueName="Column2">
                  <ItemTemplate>
                      <asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server"></asp:Label>
                  </ItemTemplate>
              </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Then on ItemDataBound you could find these labels and set some javascript as a text:

void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
        {
            GridDataItem item = e.Item as GridDataItem;
            if (item != null)
            {
                Label l1 = item["Column1"].FindControl("Label1") as Label;
                Label l2 = item["Column1"].FindControl("Label2") as Label;

                l1.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>alert(1)</script>";
                l2.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>alert(2)</script>";
            }
        }

Please give it try and let me know if it helps you. Looking forward for your reply.
