Hi,

How can I disable client side row selection when the grid is in edit mode?

Thanks,

Hello Jason,

You can try the following code snippet to disable row selection when grid is in edit mode.

ASPX:

<ClientSettings Selecting-AllowRowSelect="true" EnablePostBackOnRowClick="false">
    <ClientEvents OnRowSelecting="OnRowSelecting" />
</ClientSettings>

C#:

<script type="text/javascript">
     function OnRowSelecting(sender, args) {
        var editIndex = sender._editIndexes[0];
        if (editIndex > -1) {
            args.set_cancel(true);
        }
    }
 </script>

Thanks,
Princy.

What does ._editIndexes[0]; refer to in your code snipplet?

Hi,

You can find which items are in edit mode using the _editIndexes array. It contains the indexes of those items.  _editIndexes[0] will index of the first edit item.

Thanks for the reply.  But I do not see an event for OnRowSelecting that takes both sender and args.  From the documentation on the site I only see OnRowSelect that takes an argument of e.

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/razor/grid/clientsideevents

When debugging I do not see _editIndexes[0] in the passed in argument.  Any help is greatly appricated.

Baiscly, I need to determine if the row is in edit mode, because when a row is selected in the grid, an ajax event is fired.  When the row is in edit mode, this event throws a server error.

Thanks,
Andrew
