GridDropDownColumn HTMLEncode

[H]

why doesn't the GridDropDownColumn have the HTMLEncode propery???
I works well in the combobox but in the grid there will be problems without the encoding.

Do I need to HTMLEncode in databound? How?

Hi,

You can access the DropDownColumn text in the ItemDataBound event of the grid and encode it as shown below:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
       if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
        {
            GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            dataItem["DropDownColumnUniqueName"].Text = Server.HtmlEncode(dataItem["DropDownColumnUniqueName"].Text);

        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
