I would like to know if it is alright to use the igGrid in a ASPX project (not MVC). Is there an example to illustrate how to use it on aspx page?
I know this thread is a little old, but could you extend your demo within inline editing of a field. Showing the events to intercept and make webapi/service calls/ etc. I'm particularly interested in when the field is finished editing (such as pressing enter/tab) vs a different row being clicked.
If you would demonstrate a best practice this will be an awesome time saver.
Hello aschoi,
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any additional questions.
Hi,
Ignite UI controls are pure JavaScript controls so they are server agnostic. You can use them with any server side technology. For ASP.NET MVC we also ship Infragistics MVC Wrappers of the Ignite UI controls. These wrappers implement remote igGrid scenarios such as paging, filtering, sorting, group by etc. If you want remote scenarios in other server side technology other than ASP.NET MVC then you should implement it yourself.
Attached you can find ASP.NET WebForms project which demonstrates igGrid in remote data bind scenario. Note that this is only remote data binding. There is no remote paging, sorting, filtering etc. However you can easily enable them in local scenario. In local scenario all the data will be downloaded to the browser and igGrid features will operate on it without making subsequent requests to the server for more data.
Hope this helps,

Thank you for posting in the community.
The igGrid (and in fact all IgniteUI components) can be safely used in a plain WebForms project or even just in html pages. I am attaching a sample which uses CDN refferred scripts to illustrate this in practice. More information on using the igGrid in both MVC and WebForms scenarios can be found in our documentation at:
