Is this possible? I'd like to launch a modal popup on click, have the user complete a form of data, then close the popup form to refresh the grid on the parent page.
many thanks
Here's how I did it.
1. Add a ScriptManager.2. Add an UpdatePanel with a ContentTemplate inside.
UltraWebGrid Settings
3. Inside the ContentTemplate add the UltraWebGrid.4. Do not set a data source.5. Add a button column.6. Wire up the onclickcellbutton event.
WebDialogWindow Settings
7. Below the grid add a WebDialogWindow.8. Set the Left and Top attributes.9. Set Modal="true".10. Set WindowState="hidden".11. Inside the Header tag, hide the maximize and minimize boxes.
Example: MaximizeBox-Visible="false" MinimizeBox-Visible="false".
12. After the Header add the ContentPane.13. Inside the ContentPane add a Template.14. Inside the Template add two textboxes and a button.15. Double-click the button to wire up the click event.
Code-Behind
16. Create a UltraWebGrid bind method to set up the UltraWebGrid's DataSource and to call the DataBind() method.17. In the Page_Load event, call that method to bind the UltraWebGrid if the page is not a postback.18. In the ClickCellButton event, get the information from the table that you will need to use.
Example: string CutomerID = e.Cell.Row.Cells[1].Value.ToString();string ContactName = e.Cell.Row.Cells[3].Value.ToString();
19. Show the WebDialogWindow.
Example: WebDialogWindow1.WindowState = Infragistics.Web.UI.LayoutControls.DialogWindowState.Normal;
20. Set the value of the textboxes.
Example: CustomerIDTextBox.Text = CutomerID;ContactNameTextBox.Text = ContactName;
21. In the click event of the button on the WebDialogWindow, update the database from the values in the WebDialogWindow.
Example:string Sql = "UPDATE Customers SET ContactName = '"+ ContactNameTextBox.Text+ "' WHERE CustomerID = '"+ CustomerIDTextBox.Text+ "'";
22. Hide the WebDialogWindow.
Example: WebDialogWindow1.WindowState = Infragistics.Web.UI.LayoutControls.DialogWindowState.Hidden;
23. Call the UltraWebGrid bind method you created in step 16.
Your form will not flicker thanks to the update panel, but your data will be refreshed.
