Add new row using roweditingtemplage
posted

I have this JavaScript code to add a new row using the rowEditingTemplate:

function addRow() {
var grid = $find("<%=grdMain.ClientID%>");
var row = grid.get_behaviors().get_editingCore().get_behaviors().get_rowAdding().get_row();
var ret = grid.get_behaviors().get_editingCore().get_behaviors().get_rowEditingTemplate();           
ret.enterEditMode(row);
}

When I use this for the button the edit window stays open <input type="button" name="AddRow" value="Add Row  " onclick="addRow()" />

When I use this for the button the edit window opens and closes immediately <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkAdd" runat="server" OnClientClick="addRow()">Add</asp:LinkButton>

I would prefer to use the link button because that is what our users are used too.

Is there a way to get the link button working?

Thanks, Pat

    Hello Pat,

    Thank you for posting in our community.

    By default when the asp:LinkButton control is clicked it runs the function specified in the OnClientClick property and then makes a postback. This is the reason why the template closes. By returning false after the execution of the function the issue should be resolved:

     <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkAdd" runat="server" OnClientClick="addRow(); return false;">Add</asp:LinkButton>
