Hello Vasya

I have tried to make a sample project like my scenario. Please test this project on your PC, select the first option in the DropDownList then clic on the button. You can click on any cell and get out of this (excluding the cells in the Year column and I don't understand, Why is this happening?) and you'll watch that does not execute any postback to server side. Then you can edit one cell and afterwards you will watch when you do to click on any cell and exit ot this, the WebDataGrid will always execute a postback.

In the Default.aspx page, in GridViewData_CellEditing_ExitedEditMode function script, you can comment the line inside "if structure", remove the comment from the other line and you'll see what happens. What is the correct way to implement this?

Please, Could you help me? and, Why in the Year column is this happening?

Thanks.

Hello Vasya

I'm using your suggestion, I'm defining a global variable to use it as a flag for any changes made in the cell and finally in ExitingEditMode to check the value of the flag and do postback if necessary:

function GridViewData_CellEditing_ExitedEditMode(webDataGrid, eventArgs) {
if (changes) {
__doPostBack('<%= UpdatePanelMaster.ClientID %>', '');
}
}

But with this, the first time works perfect, but when I modify any cell, that's ok, It triggers a postback and does commit operations to DataBase. Far so good. Afterwards the WebDataGrid no longer behaves the same way. Each time I pass the cursor on a cell (GridViewData.Behaviors.EditingCore.Behaviors.CellEditing.EditModeActions.MouseClick = EditMouseClickAction.Single;) and not edit anything, It always executes a call to the server. It seems to make a __doPostBack('<%= UpdatePanelMaster.ClientID %>', ''); is wrong.

Before making an edition, the WebDataGrid behaves as desired, but then it calls to the GridViewData_CellEditing_ExitedEditMode(...) function and enters to __doPostBack('<%= UpdatePanelMaster.ClientID %>', ''); line, its behavior changes.

I've tried with the following:

function GridViewData_CellEditing_ExitedEditMode(webDataGrid, eventArgs) {
if (changes) {
//__doPostBack('<%= UpdatePanelMaster.ClientID %>', '');
webDataGrid.get_behaviors().get_editingCore()._commitUpdates();
}
}

With this apparently the WebDataGrid still works like before editing.

But, I'm not sure if this is correct... I would like something like in GridViewData_RowAdding_ExitedEditMode(...) function:

function GridViewData_RowAdding_ExitedEditMode(webDataGrid, eventArgs) {
//Make a postback every time when some text is added in the new rows' cell

var newText = eventArgs.getCell().get_text();
if (newText !== "" && newText != null ) {
var grid = webDataGrid;
grid.get_behaviors().get_editingCore().get_behaviors().get_rowAdding()._commitRow();
}
}

Can you help me, please? Any suggestion?

Thanks.

Hello Geovanny,

I am glad that you have been able to resolve your issue. If you need any further support do not hesitate to contact me.

Hello Vasya,

Yeah, It is what I needed. You're friendly.

Thank you very much.

Hello Geovanny,

I assume that your requirement is to make a postback every time when some text is added in the new rows` cell.

What I can suggest is handle the RowAdding_ExitedEditMode event where you can check whether any data is entered in the cell and make a postback if the cell is not empty . For example:

function WebDataGrid1_RowAdding_ExitedEditMode(sender, eventArgs) {
           
     var newText = eventArgs.getCell().get_text();

           if (newText !== "") {
                __doPostBack('<%= SampleUpdatePanel.ClientID %>', '');
            }
        }

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any additional questions regarding this matter.
