Manipulating filter menu and textbox - client side

[Barbaros Saglamtimur]

I'm playing radgrid with client side data binding and client side history management. I can successfully add, retrieve filter expressions from history point and bind data to radgrid from client side. What I would like to do is, filling filter textboxes with retrieved values from history point, and make menu highlighted with filterexpressions. Here is my sample code:

function RadGrid1_Command(sender, args) {
                            args.set_cancel(true);
                            var command = args.get_commandName();
                            var tableView = $find("<%= RadGrid1.ClientID %>").get_masterTableView();
                            var filterExpressions = tableView.get_filterExpressions();
                            var dyanmicLinqQuery = filterExpressions.toDynamicLinq();
                            PageMethods.GetData(dyanmicLinqQuery , updateGrid, callFailed);
                            if (command == "Filter") {
                                var State = { fex: dyanmicLinqQuery }
                                Sys.Application.addHistoryPoint(State, "Filter : " + dyanmicLinqQuery);
                            }

function onStateChanged(sender, e) {
                            var filterex = e.get_state().fex || '';
                            PageMethods.GetData(filterex , updateGrid, callFailed);
}
                               
Thanks in advance

Hello barbaros,

In this case, you can get a reference to the filter textbox, by using its clientID, to set its value, and also use the OnFilterMenuShowing client side handler, to get a reference to the menu.
I hope these suggestions help.
