RowIndex ASP.NET code

[El]

What is the equivalent of the following code which does exactly what i want with the standard GridView?

<div runat="server" ID='<%# String.Concat("div", CType(Container, GridViewRow).RowIndex %>'>
' content here
</div>

However it's a bit confusing when you work with the RadGrid.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

You can try out the following code while using RadGrid where GridDataItem represents a GridViewRow and ItemIndex represents represents RowIndex.

<div runat="server" ID='<%# String.Concat("div", CType(Container, Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem).ItemIndex %>'>
' content here
</div>

Thanks
Princy.

Hi Princy,

You seem the only one who helps me here. Thank you very much for that.

Btw, when i try to use the suggested code i am getting a parse error:

The ID property of a control can only be set using the ID attribute in the tag and a simple value. Example: <asp:Button runat="server" id="Button1" />

Any idea ? Thanks once again.

Hello El,

I recommend you visit the following links:

RadGrid Data items

Regarding your question:
GridViewRow = GridItem
RowIndex = ItemIndex

Hi El,

You can try setting the Id of the generic control from the code behind as shown in the example below. Here, I'm creating a TemplateColumn with a Label in its ItemTemplate. In the code behind, I access the label and set the text of the label to a string, which contains the generic control with the id set to index of the grid row:
aspx:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid2" runat="server"  OnItemDataBound="RadGrid2_ItemDataBound">
       <MasterTableView>
        <Columns>
         <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="Template">
           <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>

           </ItemTemplate>
         </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
        </Columns>
       </MasterTableView>
 </telerik:RadGrid>

cs:

 protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
          {
               GridDataItem dataItem = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
               Label label = (Label)dataItem["TemplateColumn"].FindControl("Label2");
               string div = String.Empty;

               div = "<div id=div" + dataItem.ItemIndex.ToString() + " runat='server' style='background-color:Red' class='container hide'>content here </div>";

               label.Text = div;
          }
    }

Hope this helps...
Princy.
