Hello Matthias,

I am just following up to see if you have any further questions with this matter.

Hello Matthias,

Thank you for providing the approach you sued to resolve this issue. I have looked into why this approach you used didn't work.

As you have already discovered the type attribute on the td element is not actually present until mouse over. This is done for performance reasons and is only present for the mouse events of the grid to help provide information in the event.   The _object value of the tr element that you are accessing is added to the tr element for convenience. It is only done once the JavaScript object for the row has been initialized. This happens either in mouse over or if row is accessed through the public API of the WebDataGrid.

Rather than simulating the mouse event it is recommended to use Client side API for WebDataGrid to get the row instead of using tr element directly. For example the following code accomplishes this:

    var grid = $find("wdg");  

   var row = grid.get_rows().get_row(0);

Let me know if have any further questions.

Hello Matthias,

Based on the functionality you mentioned, I would recommend you to check if the document is ready to load with relevant dependencies. 

The code example:

 function GridRowEnterEditMode (src, validationGroup) {

if (document.readyState != "complete")

{

//Add some delay if document.readyState is not completed

window.setTimeout("GridRowEnterEditMode ()",500); }

else { //Code logic goes here } }

I hope this helps.
