Is it possible to use GridBinaryImageColumn as a hyperlink?

[tomekm]

I want to have GridBinaryImageColumn that presents image from database. Can this image be inside hyperlink like

<a href="http://.../Product.aspx?Id=1"><img /></a> ?

Or any other approach that make image clickable and links to that row details?

Hi Rychu,

Although this functionality is not available, you can assign an onclick client side handler for the image, after accessing the relevant cell, which hosts the image:

I hope this gets you started properly.

This seems to work when clicking anywhere on the RadGrid row -except when clicking directly on the image itself.
In that case, nothing happens (i.e. no client-side event is fired).
Any idea why that is and how I can make clicking on the image also fire the (same) event?

Thx!

PS - sure would be nice if GridBinaryImageColumn had a hyperlink setting.

<script type="text/javascript">
 function RowSelected(sender, eventArgs)
 {
   var grid = sender;
   var MasterTable = grid.get_masterTableView();
   var row = MasterTable.get_dataItems()[eventArgs.get_itemIndexHierarchical()];
   var cell = MasterTable.getCellByColumnUniqueName(row, "MLSNum");
  alert('hyperlink = ' + cell.lastChild);                   // displays: hyperlink = http://domain.com
 }
</script>

<ClientSettings EnableRowHoverStyle="true">
<Selecting AllowRowSelect="true" />
<ClientEvents OnRowSelected="RowSelected" />
</ClientSettings>

One approach might be to use a RadBinaryImage inside of a GridTemplateColumn instead of the GridBinaryImageColumn :

                                    <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                                        <ItemTemplate>
                                            <a href="http://domain.com">
                                            <telerik:RadBinaryImage
                                                runat="server"
                                                DataValue='<%#Eval("Photo") %>'
                                            />
                                            </a>
                                        </ItemTemplate>
                                    </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
