[Solved] How to determine selected row

[Chris]

I see there is a selection property on the grid that returns an object representing the current selection. How can I get the selected row data item from this?

This seems to work. Is it the intended way?

var uid = grid.selection[0].getAttribute("data-uid");
var dataItem = grid.dataSource.getByUid(uid);

Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,

You can also access the data item using the RadGrid API:
 

var dataItem = grid.dataItem(grid.selection[0]);

The dataItem method receives as an argument the DOM element of a grid row and returns the corresponding data item from the data source.

Saw that method and tried it with a index, etc but didn't think to pass in the selection object. Thanks.
