Hi, I tried implementing paging. I have a couple of follow up issues though.

if I want to change the color of the Page number and make it more apparent to the user, should I override theigg_PageCurrent class? or what should be done?

Secondly, I want to make the paging index to be shown on both top and bottom of the grid.

And thirdly, when I open a record from the grid, it  takes me to a new page in te same browser. Now when I hit the back button, I am back to page 1. how do I restore the page number though we hit the back button.

Thanks

Hello,

Please find my answers below:

1) Overriding the class is best way to define your custom styles. I suggest that you do this in an external css file rather than modifying the original one.

2) Displaying the paging UI botх on top and bottom of the grid is not supported out of the box, so you will need to manually update the grid DOM to achieve that. The client side Initialize event is a suitable timing to do that.

3) The browser navigates back and the grid needs to be displaying the same page, doesnt' it ? Why the page index would need to be updated then ? Please let me know if I am missing something from the scenario.

I am looking forward to hearing from you if further questions occur.

Hi, So for the third question, if a user is viewing records on page 3 and clicks on something that takes to a different page. After the user hits the browser back button, the Pageindex is reset to 1. But the user want to have it as 3 (from what page index was he navigated). Is itr possible, or am I missing something.

Thanks,

Hello,

The easiest way to preserve the paging is keep the page index in a session before navigating to other pager, and restore that page on each postback:

   protected void btAction_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Session["CurrentGridPage"] = WebDataGrid1.Behaviors.Paging.PageIndex;
        Response.Redirect("newage.aspx");
    }

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
            if (Session["CurrentGridPage"] != null)
            {
                int page = (int)(Session["CurrentGridPage"]);
                WebDataGrid1.Behaviors.Paging.PageIndex = page;
            }
        }
...
 }

Please let me know if you have other questions, I will be glad to help

Hi,
