Help Request: RadGrid Export odd behavior.

[Richard]

OK I was working with the radgrid export functionality and when I press the export button it does a postback and it updates the page with all the rows, and then nothing.

See the attached images. as soon as I click the pdf or csv export buttons on the grid or the separate buttons it re-renders the page with all the records but does not open the PDF or the CSV.

I think I am missing something simple, for I have used export a lot and not had this issue. I am using the most current code base. here is my button code, its really straight forward.

       Protected Sub ExportPDF_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ExportPDF.Click

            RadGrid1.PageSize = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.VirtualItemCount
            RadGrid1.ExportSettings.IgnorePaging = True
            RadGrid1.ExportSettings.OpenInNewWindow = True
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ExportToPdf()
        End Sub



What is going on?

Hello Richard,

Judging by the description, the problem is that your export button is ajaxified.
Please examine the following topic:
Export from Ajaxified Grid

You can exclude all of the built-in buttons with something like this:

function onRequestStart(sender, args) {
  if (args.get_eventTarget().indexOf("ExportTo") >= 0)
    args.set_enableAjax(false);
}
