Here's my OnRowCreatedEvent:
protected void ContactHistoryGrid_RowCreated (object sender,
GridViewRowEventArgs e) {
GridView gv = (GridView) sender;
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header) {
// Apply the sorting arrows to the header as needed.
GridViewFunctions.AddSortArrow (gv, e);
} else if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Pager) {
// Setup the paging buttons (enable/disable the buttons, attach the
proper event function to the dropdownlist)
Button first = (Button) e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl ("FirstButton");
Button previous = (Button) e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl
("PrevButton");
Button next = (Button) e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl ("NextButton");
Button last = (Button) e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl ("LastButton");
DropDownList pageSelect = (DropDownList) e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl
("PageDropDown");
Literal pageCount = (Literal) e.Row.Cells[0].FindControl
("PageCountLiteral");
GridViewFunctions.InitializeButtonPager (gv, e, first, previous,
pageSelect, pageCount, next, last);
} else if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow &&
((e.Row.RowState == (DataControlRowState.Alternate |
DataControlRowState.Edit)) || e.Row.RowState ==
DataControlRowState.Edit)) {
// Set the proper javascript function for the image link to open
the popup calendar
string script = "javascript:openCalendar('{0}', '{1}');";
HyperLink calLink = (HyperLink) e.Row.FindControl
("StartDateCalendarLink");
TextBox startDateTB = (TextBox) e.Row.FindControl
("EditStartDateTextBox");
DataRowView dataItem = (DataRowView) e.Row.DataItem;
if (dataItem != null) {
string startDateString = ((DateTime)
dataItem.Row.ItemArray[7]).ToString ("d-MMM-yyyy");
calLink.NavigateUrl = String.Format (script, startDateTB.ClientID,
Server.UrlEncode (startDateString));
}
}
}
The premise here is that in the row that gets edited, I have a textbox
with a link to open a pop-up calendar, that will write back the value
to the text box. That part works. The problem is when I try to click
the update button. The page postsback, but it doesn't leave the "edit"
mode. Instead, it comes back and all the textboxes are now blank. If I
type the values back into the textboxes and submit a second time, my
database gets updated, it leaves edit mode, etc (in other words, it
works). If I remove the third else condition in my RowCreated event,
the page works as expected form the get-go (only need to postback once
to have the update occur), but I obviously lose out on my pop-up
calendar.
Anyone got any clues what is going on here?
