NestedViewTemplate on client side

[William]

Hi folks
I am trying to update a label I have in a NestedViewTemplate on the client side in the RowDataBound event. Does anyone know how I can do this? Here is what I have tried but it doesn't work. FindControl doesn't find the control:
        function RadGrid1_RowDataBound(sender, args)
            {
                var label1 = args.get_item().findControl("lblReferenceValue"); // find control
                label1.set_value(args.get_dataItem()["ReportSourceId"]);
            }
Here is my markup:
            <NestedViewTemplate>
                <asp:Table ID="tblDetails" runat="server">
                    <asp:TableRow ID="trReference">
                        <asp:TableCell>
                            <asp:Label ID="lblReferenceValue" runat="server" Text="Reference:" />

Hello William,

You can try findElement instead findControl on the following line:
var label1 = args.get_item().findControl("lblReferenceValue"); // find control

Please give it a try and see whether it helps.

Hi Nikolay

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that doesn't work either!
The problem seems to be that from the RowDataBound event there doesn't seem to be any way of getting to the nested view template. I can get the data row itself by calling args.get_item(), but once I have this there doesn't seem to be any way of getting the nested view template associated with this row.
I would imagine that once I have the nested view template that it would be possible to find the controls on it...
Any further advice??

Hello William,

For your convenience I've prepared sample application. You can find it attached to this post.
It demonstrates how on RowDataBound client-side event you can find control in NestedViewTemplate.

I hope this helps.
