datagrid enableViewState question

[Mortar]

i would like my datagrids to be both sortable and pageable. All the
examples i have found so far use methods which require the datagrid's
enableViewState method set to true. This can be bad if the datagrid is
holding lots and lots of data.

is it possible to change the link on the datagrid header column links
somehow? I would basically like these links to call a custom
javascript function instead of doing a postback. In the javascript
function I would set a hidden text field the value of the sorting
column, then submit the form.

am i missing something? is there a better way of doing this?

[Alvin Bruney [MVP - ASP.NET]]

one of the MVP's (ashok - ASP.NET MVP) wrote a sortable datagrid using
strictly client side a while back. see if you have any luck googling for it.
he also made the source code available
