WebHierarchicalDataGrid - get selected rows on Client Alex Kartavov / Friday, October 29, 2010 In this small sample it is shown how to get selected rows in a WebHierarchicalDataGrid using recursion: <script type="text/javascript"> function AddLine(gridView) { var events = document.getElementById("selection"); // gets reference to the DIV element var selectedRows = GetSelectedRows(gridView); for (var i = selectedRows.get_length() - 1; i >= 0; i--) { if (gridView._level == 0) events.innerHTML += selectedRows.getItem(i).get_cell(1).get_text() + "<br> "; // gets a refrence to the actor name cell else events.innerHTML += selectedRows.getItem(i).get_cell(2).get_text() + "<br> "; // gets a refrence to the title or song name cell } } function GetSelectedRows(gridView) { return gridView.get_behaviors().get_selection().get_selectedRows(); // gets the selected rows for the grid view } function GetChildGridView(gridView) { if (gridView._level == 0) AddLine(gridView); var rows = gridView.get_rows(); // gets a reference to the container grid's rows for (var i = 0; i < rows.get_length(); i++) { var childGridView = rows.get_row(i).get_rowIslands()[0]; // gets reference to the child grid view if (childGridView) { AddLine(childGridView); // adds a line with the current selected row to the DIV element GetChildGridView(childGridView); } } } function GetSelected() { var events = document.getElementById("selection"); events.innerHTML = ""; var grid = $find('<%= this.WebHierarchicalDataGrid1.ClientID %>'); GetChildGridView(grid.get_gridView()); } </script> Enjoy!
