[Solved] GridHyperLinkColumn in RadGrid

[Vinita]

I have created an inline editable grid, and i am having one of my column as GridHyperlink column. I want that column also to be editable. But alll others columns are coming as editable on double click of the row but the hyperlink column is coming as read only. Please help.

Thanks in advance,
Vinita

Hello Vinita,

You can use a TemplateColumn rather than a HyperlinkColumn with a HyperLink in its ItemTemplate and a TextBox in its EditItemTemplate as shown below:
aspx:

 <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
          <ItemTemplate>
              <asp:HyperLink runat="server" ID="HyperLink1" Text='<%# Eval("Quantity") %>'>
                    </asp:HyperLink>
         </ItemTemplate>
         <EditItemTemplate>
              <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="Textbox1" Text='<%# Bind("Quantity") %>'>
                    </asp:TextBox>
         </EditItemTemplate>
 </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Thanks
Princy.

I tried this,  the value in the column was not coming as hyperlink.

my code is:
 

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn DataField="ows_Title" HeaderText="Job Requisition Title">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <asp:HyperLink runat="server" ID="HyperLink1" Text='<%# Eval("ows_Title") %>'>
        </asp:HyperLink>
    </ItemTemplate>
    <EditItemTemplate>
       <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="Textbox1" Text='<%# Bind("ows_Title") %>'>
       </asp:TextBox>
   </EditItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Is there any problem in this peice of code?

Do i have to place some code in the code behind i.e. c# file?
 
Thanks in advance,
Vinita

Hello Vinita,

Set the NavigateUrl property to show the value as a hyperlink. Try the ASPX and check whether it works.

ASPX:

<ItemTemplate>
      <asp:HyperLink runat="server" ID="HyperLink1" NavigateUrl='<%# Eval("ows_Title") %>' Text='<%# Bind("ows_Title") %>'>
      </asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>

Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Princy,

I tried placing NavigateURL attribute also but no luck.

Thanks,

I too am having a similar problem with the hyperlink column in the radgrid.  I assign a value to the text property and the navigateURL property and when i run my project, it does not display as a hyperlink.

Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Brian,

I created a sample project, illustrating how to implement the approach suggested by Princy.

Test it at your side and let us know whether it helps.

So are you saying that using the following doesn't work:

 

 

<telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn DataTextField="Name" UniqueName="Name" NavigateUrl="http://www.google.com" Target="Google" >

 

 

 

 

</telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn>

 

 

The approach you described I've used before, however, in the project I am working on right now, I have to be able to use client-side binding.

Hello Brian,

Try the following modification:

<telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn
    DataTextField="Name"
    UniqueName="Name"
    DataNavigateUrlFormatString="http://www.google.com"
    DataNavigateUrlFields="Name"
    Target="_blank" >
</telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn>

I am having a similar problem and Target="_blank" works.  Is there any way to do this without opening a new window?  In my case I can't move away from the page with the grid, whether it is using a Response.Redirect or a <telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn> and an actual link similar to the example above.

Thanks.

Hello Kyle,

You just need to modify target="_blank" to target="_self":

<telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn
    DataTextField="Name"
    UniqueName="Name"
    DataNavigateUrlFormatString="http://www.google.com"
    DataNavigateUrlFields="Name"
    Target="_self" >
</telerik:GridHyperLinkColumn>
