Nested Item Reference

[André Freitas]

Im using a radgrid with paging, and handling the pageindexchanged, to save everything in the grid (a few checkboxes).

  protected void OnPageIndexChanged(object sender, GridPageChangedEventArgs e)
  {
   RadGrid radGrid = (RadGrid)sender;
   foreach (GridDataItem item in radGrid.Items)
   {
        CheckBox checkBox = (CheckBox)item.FindControl("chkList");
   }
  }

There's a nested item, with a textarea, in each item. How can I get a reference for the nested textarea inside each dataitem?

Hello Andre,

I guess you are using textarea inside NestedViewTemplate. In order to get reference to the textarea related to each dataitem, you can iterate through the griditem collection and use the FindControl() method of NestedViewCell. Check out the following code:

C#:

 protected void RadGrid1_PageIndexChanged(object source, GridPageChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        RadGrid radGrid = (RadGrid)source;
        foreach (GridDataItem item in radGrid.Items)
         {
           HtmlTextArea textArea = (HtmlTextArea)item.ChildItem.NestedViewCell.FindControl("Textarea1");
         }
    }

Regards,
Shinu.
