RadGrid Viewstate is not loaded when hit browser's back button

[Deepa]

Hello,
I am using RAD GRID and one column is linkable to other page. So when I hit on the link of one of the populated records of Rad Grid then it goes to next page. The problem is when I go back using BACK button of browser then Grid's data lost. I can put the data in the session like datatable and populate it again but there are other 150 controls on the same page too from which I am populating grid and some are Grid Dropdowns.
So In short I need to maintain that Controls along with RadGrid when I click on back button of browser.
Rather than storing everything in Session or viewstate, Is there any other way to do it.
Please response ASAP.
Thanks,
Deepa

Hello Deepa,

Can you please specify if your RadGrid is ajaxified and if the issue persists if you disable ajax?

Thanks for the response.

And yes the Grid is ajaxified using,

 

 

 

<telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server">

And I must need that because it handles about 25000 records.
Please tell me how can I so along with using AJAX if there is any solution.

Thanks,
Deepa

Hello Deepa,

You can overcome the issue with the back browser button by implementing the browser history through the ScriptManager. You can use the below articles for a reference:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc488548.aspx

The same approach can be used if you have RadScriptManager instead of ScriptManager.

Hi Deepa,

I am attaching a sample project illustrating sample implementation of the ScriptManager History.
I hope this helps.
