Server side loop through visible rows

[Paul]

I have a feeling this should be simple but I can't for the life of me get my head around it.

I want a clientside doubleclick event to do a simple javascript window.open() with the URL derived from data in the grid row clicked.

My first javascript function looked like this:

function RowDblClick(sender, eventArgs) {
switch (eventArgs.get_itemIndexHierarchical()) {
 case '0':
    window.open('urlhere','','')
 case '1':
  ....etc

}
}

Simple enough. The calculation of the URL is quite intensive so I don't want to do it more than I have to, so what I want to do is loop through the visible rows
and generate the code I need.

Any help would be appreciated

Hello Paul,

You can use ItemCreated or ItemDataBound to achieve this:

if(e.Item is GridDataItem)
{
    e.Item.Attributes["ondblclick"] = "yourFunction";
}

Many thanks for the response, but unfortunately I already thought of that.
The grid is only part of the page (its on a radTab actually), its sharing with a conventional form.
Now ItemDataBound apparently isnt fired on a page postback, so when I submit the form the page reloads without triggering the itemdatabound event and the javascript never gets compiled.
So it only works when the page is first opened.

Any other approach I can use?
Remember that there could be hundreds of rows in the grid in total, and the calculation for which page to open is quite intensive so I only want to loop through the visible rows if possible.

Hello Paul,

You can use ItemCreated instead. If you need a value related to the current data item you can use DataKeyNames/DataKeyValues.
