Set border color in radgrid batchedit using batchmanager

[Neil]

Hi,

   I have set up some code that fires when the "save changes" link it clicked during a batchedit session. The only goal I have here is to set the border color to red if the number entered does not fall into a certain range. I've left the test for the range out of the code below because it isn't important. 

  I have looked through countless telerik posts and finally came upon a line of code to set the bordercolor of the cell to red that doesn't blow up and tell me that some part of the line of code has a property or method that doesn't exist in the idcell object (see below); the line of code does execute with no error:

idCell.style.backgroundColor == "red";

However the cell border does not turn red;

I am confident that the code I'm using does access the cell because this line does work:

  var id = batchManager.getCellValue(idCell);

So basically I can't figure out how to turn the border color to red. Here is a boiled down version of the code to give you an idea of what code I'm using. Any help would be appreciated:

if (args.get_commandName() == "BatchEdit") {
                var masterTable = sender.get_masterTableView();
                var batchManager = sender.get_batchEditingManager();
                var dataItems = masterTable.get_dataItems();
                var idCell = dataItems[i].get_cell("LINE")
                var id = batchManager.getCellValue(idCell);
                var regexpString = "^\\d+\\.\\d{0,decimal}$";
                var fieldValid = regexp.test(id);
                if (fieldValid)
                    batchManager.changeCellValue(idCell, id);
                idCell.style.backgroundColor == "red"; //THIS DOES NOT TURN TO BORDER TO RED
}

Whoops. The code is trying to set the backgroundcolor which I tried as an experiment hoping to change ANY COLOR IN THE CELL to point me in the right direction. I really do want to change the border color here. Sorry for the error.

I am very embarrassed. i was almost there. I didn't notice that i had a double equal sign (==) in my assignment of the background color. Honestly I thought it would error out but it didn't .For those who have run into the same issue the code is:

 

idCell.style.borderColor = "red";

 

Sorry :-) This is closed.

Hi,

Nothing to worry about, Neil - such omissions are normal for each developer :) I am happy to know that everything is working properly now.
