If i use set_text(), does it get commited on a client side behavior commit?

Sorry my javascript looks as such:

var cell = evntArgs.getCell();
var colName = cell.get_column().get_key();
var r = cell._row._address;
var c = cell._address;
//  Foramt text of current cell
var colval = webDataGrid.get_rows().get_row(r).get_cell(c).get_value();
//alert(webDataGrid.get_rows().get_row(r).get_cell(c).get_value());
//debugger;
 
 
if (colval < 0) {
var scolval = String(Math.abs(colval));
webDataGrid.get_rows().get_row(r).get_cell(c).set_text("<font color=" + String.fromCharCode(32) + "red" + String.fromCharCode(32) + ">(" + numberWithCommas(scolval) + ")</font>");
 //webDataGrid.get_rows().get_row(r).get_cell(c).set_text(numberWithCommas(scolval));
				        
}
else {
var scolval = String(colval);
webDataGrid.get_rows().get_row(r).get_cell(c).set_text(numberWithCommas(scolval));
				       
}
function numberWithCommas(x) {
return x.toString().replace(/\B(?=(\d{3})+(?!\d))/g, ",");
}

Hi,

In most cases, the value is extracted from the html of the cell, unless it was formatted on the server.  What you should do is call set_value(colVal, newText);  This will keep the old value in an attribute on the cell and replace the text.

I don't want to change the value I actually use that to calculate other row/columns they just want to see any negative numbers displayed as (num)  Ie. -99 would have text of (99)

I meant to mention that previous javascript is called on exitededit on the cells of the grid. (along with other code)

I realize this is an older post, but it seemed the best context to ask this question.  Where do I find documentation on set_value(), set_text() and other functions? I could not find them anywhere in the Infragistics documentation.   I am pretty good at web forms, but asp.net is new to me and I would never have known of these methods without this post, so can you offer a good resource to educate me on the available methods/functions?

Thanks!
