Using onserverclick in PagerTamplate to export Grid to CSV

[Chris]

I am using a RadGrid element and need to export CSV data from it. When I place a link outside of the RadGrid element, the export works fine: 

<a title="Export" onserverclick="Export_CSV_Click" runat="server" class="icon-msexcelexport icon" href="#"></a>

<telerik:RadGrid ID="myGrid" runat="server" EnableViewState="false">

etc...

​

Now when I place that same link within the PagerTemplate, it no longer works and I get a javascript popup error.

<telerik:RadGrid ID="myGrid" runat="server" EnableViewState="false">

    <MasterTableView

        <PagerTemplate>

            <a title="Export" onserverclick="Export_CSV_Click" runat="server" class="icon-msexcelexport icon" href="#"></a>

 

 

And the export method..

protected void Export_CSV_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

     myGrid.MasterTableView.ExportToCSV();

}

 

How would I get this button working from within the PagerTemplate?

Hello Chris,

I believe that this should be working properly except in the case where your RadGrid has been ajax enabled. In this case you should stop ajax when exporting as explained here:
Export from Ajaxified Grid

I hope this helps.
