Passing data to a GridButtonColum event handler

[Robert]

Hi,

I have a RadGrid which contains a GridButtonColumn with a LinkButton inside. If the user clicks this Link, a RadWindow opens which shows a detail page for the clicked record. Now I need to pass the data key for that record to the RadWindow. Therefore I have created an invisible column in the RadGrid which contains these keys.

The problem is, to determine which record has been clicked and to pass the according value to the opened window.

I use the RadGrid's ItemCommand Event to open the window. How can I pass data from the grid to the event handler?

Best regards,

Robert

Hello Robert,

       You can try out the following code to open a RadWindow and pass the DataKeyValue to the window.
cs:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
         if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
            {
                GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
                string key=dataItem.GetDataKeyValue("FirstName").ToString();
                LinkButton lnkbtn = (LinkButton)dataItem["Button"].Controls[0];
                lnkbtn.Attributes.Add("OnClick", "return ShowWindow('" + key + "')");
            }
    }

js:

function ShowWindow(key)
            {
                 var Wnd = radopen("Default7.aspx?FirstName=" +key, "RadWindow1" );
                 return false;
            }
