I'm specifying each column in the code like this using the GridModel:
model.Columns.Add(new GridColumn("EmployeeId", "EmpId", "string", "200px"));
Is there a way of creating a column as a hyperlink, so that I can link to a user profile using the "EmpId" variable (i.e. Home/details?EmpId=columnval)?
I'm doing something similar.
Angel posted one way of doing it here: https://es.infragistics.com/community/forums/f/ignite-ui-for-javascript/58670/adding-columns-in-addition-to-the-data
Building on that answer, I skipped the onclick and function and instead, built the ULR in the row template like this:
.JQueryTemplating(true).RowTemplate("<tr><td><a href='../ActionName/${Field1}' >${Field1}</a></td><td>${Field2}</td><td>${Field3}</td><td>${Field4}</td></tr>")
I'm using MVC3 and Razor, but you should be able to do something similar.
