Hello,

I am using the following code below, which aims to open a new window whenever the user clicks on column Name rows in the gridview. However, I can not get the code to work and on the client-side, the click functionality is inactive.

JavaScript

<script type="text/javascript">

    function popItUp(querystring) {
        window.open('About.aspx' + querystring);
    }
</script>

ASP.NET

<asp:GridView ID="gv" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
       DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2"  OnRowDataBound="gv_RowDataBound">
       <Columns>
           <asp:BoundField DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" SortExpression="Name" />
           <asp:BoundField DataField="column1" HeaderText="column1"
               SortExpression="column1" />
           <asp:BoundField DataField="priceTalk" HeaderText="priceTalk"
               SortExpression="priceTalk" />
           <asp:BoundField DataField="Decimal_price" HeaderText="Decimal_price"
               SortExpression="Decimal_price" />
           <asp:BoundField DataField="Cover" HeaderText="Cover" SortExpression="Cover" />
           <asp:BoundField DataField="Type" HeaderText="Type" SortExpression="Type" />
           <asp:BoundField DataField="UploadDate" HeaderText="UploadDate"
               SortExpression="UploadDate" />
       </Columns>
   </asp:GridView>

Updated working solution:

ASP.NET

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Deal_Name">
                           <ItemTemplate>
                           <a href="java<!-- no -->script:popup('About.aspx?id=<%#Eval("Deal_name")%>&designation=<%#Eval("Deal_name")%>&a=d')"><%#Eval("Deal_name")%></a>
                           </ItemTemplate>
                           </asp:TemplateField>

JavaScript

function popup(url) {

        popupWindow = window.open(url, 'popupWindow', 'heigh=700,width=900,left=10,top=10,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=yes,menubar=no,location=no,direction=no,status=yes')
    }

Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks for your time and help.

hi
use this line..

C#

e.Row.Attributes["ondblclick"] = string.Format("popItUp('{0}')", queryString);

add single quotes to the popItUp function parameter.

Solution 1

instead of using the on RowDataBound you could change the Bound field to a templated field like below.

XML

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Start Date" SortExpression="startdate">

<ItemTemplate>

<asp:hyperlink runat="server" id="HyperLink1" navigateurl="<%# "Events.aspx?myDate=" + Eval("startdate")%>" text="<%# Eval("startdate","{0:d}")%>" xmlns:asp="#unknown"></asp:hyperlink>

</ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>

Thank you so much for your response and your suggestion. I am sorry to sound ungrateful but I am unaware of "asp:TemplateField" and I am not sure how to integrate this function into the code behind.

Karthik_Mahalingam 20-Dec-13 11:29am

try my solution.

bowlturner 20-Dec-13 11:32am

That's just it, you wouldn't need to integrate with the code behind, the link and the pop-up can be done in the mark up.
