RadGrid ClientEvents > OnCellSelecting Propagate Event.

[Abhijit Shetty]

Hi,
Suppose i have placed a button inside a ClientItemTemplate of RadGrid and attached handler to its click event as:

<ClientItemTemplate>
         <input type="button" onclick="OnModifyActiveStatus(this);">
         </input>
</ClientItemTemplate>

Now i have enabled CellSelectedEvent and attached an handler to OnCellSelected event as:

<ClientEvents OnCellSelected="cs" ... />

Now when i click on button inside Template, i want both event handlers to get fired (button.onclick and ClientEvents.OnCellSelected) which I'm getting in firefox but no success in IE.

Hi Abhijit,

Note that the mentioned behaviour is browser specific and it depends on the different browser event bubbling mechanism. You could manually select the needed sell in the "OnModifyActiveStatus" client function. See the online demo below which could help on this matter:

Thanks Maria.
Actually i need to get reference of selected dataItem in OnModifyActiveStatus method which is not possible because of which i used event bubbling where in i store clicked dataItem to global variable in OnCellSelected event and then access it on OnModifyActiveStatus method.

According to you IE doesn't bubble its event? Because in other browsers I'm getting desired functionality.

Hello Abhajit,

As I previously mentioned this is a browser behaviour and the issue is that the IE browser does not bubble the event as in the other browsers. This is browser behaviour which we could not manipulate.
