Fix GridView height when number of rows < page size

Have you ever noticed that when the number of rows displayed in a GridView is less than the page number, the GridView shrinks in height?

Suppose you were in Page 1 of a GridView showing 10 records, then you moved to Page 2 where it displays only 5 records, you will notice that the GridView height shrunk to fit those 5 records.  This can be annoying!   Would not it be better to keep the GridView height the same no matter the number of records being displayed?

In Figure 6 you will see a GridView with only a few records and you will notice empty records are added automatically because the number of records shown is less than the GridView’s page size.

Figure 6

Notice the three empty records added just to maintain the GridView height.

This is a built-in feature so you would find any property in the extended GridView control to configure it.

Title: Capturing column index when right click on row   
Name: amp

Comment:
Problem: Would like to right click on a column header and a context menu would allow a user to format a column of data (ie, 1 versus 2 decimal places), hide the column or move the column to another position. Since I've found no way in gridview or xgrid to do this, I am settling on using the right click on a row context menu that xGrid supports. However, I need to be able to determine the column index where the user right clicked the row. How can I do this?

Great Job!!!
My question is: how can I add the standard grid view commands (select, edit, delete, cancel, update) to the context menu, so the grid will execute their default behavior, with no need to do it manually?
For instance, add a delete command to the context menu that will behave exactly as a button with a delete command. Without making the delete progromatically.

Hello,

this is good idea - just one point - a grdi view should hve a default built in DropDown List with a number of records per page (e.g. 5, 10, 20, 50, 100) - so that the user could choose how many does he/she wants to see. The rest is cool.

I posted the following message in Codeplex but maybe someone can help me in here. Anyway thanks in advance for any help:

Hi,

I was wondering if you could help me to implement custom paging in XGrid? See, I was trying to implement the information that I found in this article into Xgrid: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/GridViewNeatPaging.asp but I'm having some problems. Let me be more specific. The paging works fine but when I try to edit one of the items in my gridview then the pageindex gets reseted and the wrong item gets updated. I've tried to keep the pageindex in the ViewState but it I lose it at some point.
Anyway, thanks so much for your help and for sharing such a great project.

Thanks,

Mario.

Hello,
I've definiteley found filter functionality to be very useful. However, when I try to edit a filtered row using context menu Edit option, the grid goes back to the unfiltered view and the wrong row becomes editable. This behavior can be checked against the sample code that downloads from this site. Edit button placed in every row works fine even when the grid is filtered.

Hi Bilal,

First of all i would like to thank you for the magnificent piece of work you delivered. It's meeting almost all the requirements i have for my project.

The tiny little error first and a question later :D

On the properties tab in visual studio the description for the EnableRowClick and EnableRowDoubleClick are the same. The descrition for EnableRowClick says .... enable Double Click event .... It's located on line 373 of xGrid.cs.

The question i had: Is it possible to user buttons outside the gridview to perform the insert,edit,delete,update and cancel? So far i have managed to hack my through some of then, but i can't figure a way out to expose the functionality of the update and cancel in the insert state.

But once again thanks a lot!

Hi Bilal,

Great control You have made - solves a lot of issues for me :-)

I have one small problem though. I am using the MoiuseOveColor and ContextMenues in the grid. But when entering the contextmenu - the color of the selected row changes back to normal - which is a bit confusing for my users - their not sure what they have selected. Is there a way to keep the color change while inside the contextmenu or somehow have the row selected on right click too??

I'm sure other's are wishing the context menu from Dino Esposito would work in Firefox as I did. So after playing around with it today and borrowing scripts elsewhere from the web here you go!

// change private const string AttachContextMenu = "return __showContextMenu({0});";
// to private const string AttachContextMenu = "return __showContextMenu({0}, event);";

// then add the event argument to the __showContextMenu function definition

// the rest takes care of Firefox


function __showContextMenu(menu, event)
{
var browserName = whichBrs();

var menuOffset = 2;
if (browserName == "Internet Explorer") {
menu.style.left = window.event.x - menuOffset;
menu.style.top = window.event.y - menuOffset;
menu.style.display = "";
window.event.cancelBubble = true;

}

if (browserName == "Firefox") {
var btn = whichButton(event);
if (btn == 2)
{
menu.style.left = event.clientX - menuOffset;
menu.style.top = event.clientY - menuOffset;

Title: CheckAll checks really does checks all . - Part1   
Name: salman

Comment:
1. The problem is with the javascript code to check the checkboxes (say that really fast 4 time) for xgrid.
It searches all the controls on the form for Checkboxes
and is supposed to check it if only they have a prefix of Xgrid1 (or whatever ID you used for your Xgrid).

This is where the problem is…
function __CheckAll(me)
{
var index = me.name.indexOf('_');
var prefix = me.name.substr(0,index);
//… the rest of the code is in GridView.js

2. This is the solution. Warning my coding skill is bad. if don’t like the fix . Fix it for me.


/*

me = XGrid1_Header

o could be
XGrid1_ctl01_CheckBoxButton
XGrid1_ctl02_CheckBoxButton
Xgrid1_ctl03_ctl00 – another checkbox

OR
me = Panel1_XGrid1_Header

o could be
Panel1_XGrid1_ctl01_CheckBoxButton
Panel1_XGrid1_ctl02_CheckBoxButton
Panel1_Xgrid1_ctl03_ctl00 – another checkbox

Required : prefix = XGrid1.
OR
prefix = Panel1_XGrid1.
OR
prefix = FormView04_Panel01_XGrid1.

object o should be a checkbox.

object o should be from our AutoGeneratedCheckboxColumn.
easy… we always append ‘CheckboxButton’ to the ID of our
Auto-Generated Checkboxes.

Thank you, this control is great. I am having problems with the row select. Say in a grid of 10, I select the 6th item. Page postback and works great, just like I want. Now I click on header to change sort. The highlight remains on 6th item even though that is not the record I had selected. How can you SET the highlighted row in code behind ? I can only see the selectedindex and in my above example is 6.

Anyone ? Again thanx for making this available. Tom

Title: Row color problem (II)   
Name: Javier Martínez
Date: 2007-01-28 3:29:37 AM
Comment:
Hi,
I have found the solution for the problem: In the method 'ApplyCheckBoxStyle' of the file 'xGrid.cs' I have changed 'if( cb.Checked )' by 'if (cb.Checked || r.RowIndex == this.SelectedIndex )' (Line 876) and it works fine now.

The problem is due to refresh the row style when the associated checkbox is unchecked but the row is selected.

I hope this help.

First: Sorry for my english.
Second: The xGrid control is a very, very good job. Thanks for it.
Third: I have a problem with it. I use the 'Enable Row Click' and 'MouseOverColor' and all it's fine. But when I put 'AutogenerateCheckBoxColumn' to 'true' and CheckBoxColunIndex to '0' happens a curious thing: Only the odd colums use the 'MouseOverColor'. The even columns are transparents despite I don't use any style for the alternating Rows. Anyone knows what's happening.

This could've saved me a lotta time. so for anyone else like me interested in how to use the checkbox featue in Xgrid.

foreach (int index in XGrid1.GetSelectedIndices())
{
String Datakey = XGrid1.DataKeys[index].Value.ToString();

// do whatever you want with the key now,
// I just print the Selected keys.
Label.Text += Datakey + " ";
}

//GetSelectedIndices: returns The rows for which the checkbox is checked

a bit late Sorry, but for any one who needs to get the selected row by using the checkbox feature.

You may find GetSelectedIndices() does the job. I guess Bilal RENAMED SelectedIndices to GetSelectedIndices.

Like Alphonso, I'm trying to use the checkbox feature. Adding my own checkbox column isn't nearly as handy because I have to go to edit mode for each row I want to check, and besides, this does not correspond to a database field, but just to an action I want to take for selected rows. But I also don't know how to get to the value of the xGrid checkbox.
Title: Accessing the CheckBoxes   
Name: Alphonso
Date: 2006-12-15 11:20:36 AM
Comment:
Thx Bilal.
I've already made a grid with checkboxes. As you explained I simply loop through the grid's rows to findout which ones are checked. The problem is that I do not know how to do that with your xGrid. when using the classical grid, I add a checkbox control my self (as a coloumn) so that I can access it in the codebehind. But I don't seem to find any "reference" to the checkboxes of xGrid. I tried to find something via code completion but wasn't able to.
Unfortunately the code sample you kindly provide doesn't use the checkboxes at all. That would've helped ;).
Thanks again.
Cheers.
PS: Can anyone point to more "extended controls" just like this wonderfull xGrid ? Please do share.

Hello, and thanks for sharing the xGrid.
I wonder how can one access the checkboxes "values" in the behind-code?
For instance, if I use xGrid to display a list of users and want to be able to send some email to some of them.
I check the checkboxes related to the selected users. Then click one some "send email" button.
On that button's onClick handler I need to access the CheckBox status/value for each row to be able to tell whether or not to send the email.
How is that done?
Thanks again.

Name: Paul Raymond

Comment:
I did some extensive testing on an ASP.NET web app that I am developing and found that there were a few issues that arrive that don't seem to have been addressed here.
1) First is right-click rendering of the contextMenu. I couldn't seem to get it working with either Firefox (1.5) or Netscape (7.0). I assume that a developer would have to disable the browsers rightclick mechanism for this to work.
2) I've not had luck in getting the insert to show up with rightclick and select add. I was not sure if I have to populate a footer with the required controls, or if it will automatically draw from the edit controls?
3) It does not appear to render (Expecting insert dialog) if bound to an empty SQLDataSource. Perhaps the same reason as #3?
4) Fourth, I've converted your sourcecode to vb (as I am primariliy a VB.NET developer) in order that I could better follow the sourcecode through its travel and thus better understand it. Is that ok with you? I am just starting to test with it so I don't have any feedback as yet.

Thanks for a great step in improving a much needed control.

I create a custom gridview with 6 columns and have 1 hidden using CSS. So when HeightFixer runs, it ignores the column CSS style for the previous columns. I fixed the issue with this in XGrid.cs

if (this.enableHeightResolver)
{
GridViewRow gvRow = null;
for (int rows = this.Rows.Count; rows < this.PageSize; rows++)
{
// Create a dummy Row of type DataRow and Normal State
gvRow = new GridViewRow(-1, -1, DataControlRowType.DataRow, DataControlRowState.Normal);

for (int columns = 0; columns < this.ActualColumns; columns++)
{
// Add columns with &nbsp; (space) to take a height
TableCell tableCell = new TableCell();
tableCell.CssClass = this.Columns[columns].ItemStyle.CssClass;
tableCell.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("&nbsp;"));
gvRow.Controls.Add(tableCell);
}

//Inserts the rows right above the footer row.
//Remove the "- 1" if you are not using a footer.
if (this.Rows.Count > 0)
{
this.Controls[0].Controls.AddAt(this.Controls[0].Controls.Count - 1, gvRow);
}
}

Hi Bilal, the problem is on the page, but it seems to be an issue with ATLAS. I just remove response.write from the page and replace it with this.page.registerclientscriptblock(function) and all works fine. Regarding Master Pages, Sort, Edit and Delete events just doesn't work but select. For example, the next error is displayed when trying sorting: "The GridView 'XGrid1' fired event Sorting which wasn't handled". I think is a problem with de ClientID (ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$XGrid1).

Date: 2006-09-18 4:20:56 AM

I tried to make the OnRowClick event set the row to be edited, so the user just clicks a row, makes updates and clicks away. The problem is when the click a textbox to enter data, the OnRowCick event happens again, and the datagrid is refreshed and the user loses focus on the textbox (but the row is still edit mode).

Surely this is the main use of the OnRowClick event? My code is something like

if(xgrid1.EditIndex != e.GridViewRow.Index)
xgrid1.EditIndex = e.GridViewRow.Index;

Bilal, I see you solved the MasterPage problem. The problem was probably referencing ContextMenu control in JavaScript using ClientID which is generated by ASP.NET differently (ASP.NET adds ctl00_ContentPlaceHolderxx as a prefix to ClientID) when you use MasterPage solution. I read your reply too late, so I used it in IFrame to avoid this problem. BTW, you should be really proud of your work because I am using your control in my Master of science diploma work, my mentor is thrilled with the xGrid.

Name: Uwe

Comment:
Hi Sameer,

the control-collection is really great -
thank you for making them publicly available!

I started working with it and I learned to love it because
it is pretty intuitive and has almost every feature I need.

Digging a bit deeper into it I noticed the following issues:

Background:
- It is a website containing master- and content-pages
- Atlas UpdatePanels are used
- Multiple xGrid-Views exist on each content-page

The first problem seems to be related to the
"xGrid on Masterpage problem". The browser reports
"ContextMenu1_Root is undefined". But the control is
not located on a master-page but on a content-page.

Next issue:
The xGrid-View has (Templated) Linkbutton's - but
the corresponding event does not get triggered as soon
as the "EnableRowClick" is set to "True".
I have a strange feeling that this problem appears
due to the atlas-toolkit - but I'm not sure.

Do you have any idea or workaround for these issues?

Thank you in advance, best regards, Uwe

When using the asp.net 2.0 gridview control, I had the following line of code in the gridview's RowDataBound event handler:

e.Row.Attributes.Add("onMouseOver", "this.style.cursor='hand';")

This no longer works with xGrid. Can this cursor style be implemented in your xGrid?

Title: SumColumn

Syed Aziz ur Rahman has an interesting extension of datagrid that would be especially useful in gridview. All the examples I have seen to create sums in the footer go through an extended process to capture the data, then format it (not necessarily lining up with the associated columns that are being summed). These other approaches work fine when one or two columns are being summed, but when an entire gridview needs to be summed, it would be helpful to have a column type that included this feature.

While Syed places the titles for each calculation in the new column type, I would prefer that these titles be placed in a column further to the left (and therefore, not repeated for each column that uses this column type).

It was also noted that his code sums only those values that are shown on the particular page (providing page sub-totals). While this may be desirable in many instances, it would be great if there could be a choice to optionally show grand totals as well (totals based on all records collected across all pages -- whatever that criteria may be).

I have done some fixes to the current implementation of the xGrid.
1- I fixed the problem in accessing the ContextMenu when the xGrid is placed in a master page.
2- I made the Filter Textbox accessible, so that you can attach whatever events to it.
3- Regarding, the Row Clicked Index, if you look further, there is the RowClickEventArgs, it contains a property called GridViewRow, that gives you all information needed about the Row Clicked. There is also the RowDoubleClickEventArgs class which has the GridViewRow property.

I will be posting about the changes very soon on my blog: http://bhaidar.net and I will locate the file (dll) where you can download and use.

Hope this helps,
Regards

Title: xGrid on Masterpage problem   
Name: Ivan Barbaric

Hello,

Is there any way to use xGrid control on the Masterpage with the ContextMenu? ASP.NET during runtime searches for "root_ContextMenu1" but such control doesn't exist. When I debug I see the ClientID is "ctl00_ContextMenu1". When I use normal page ClientID is "ContextMenu1" which is OK.

Any comment on this subject would be greatly appreciated!
Title: idx col clicked and master page uses

Very nice functionalities added.
:o)

One question and one comment :

Question :
Can you add the index of the column clicked ?

Comment :
When you use a masterpage, you can only access by code behind to the body tag.
But even when you add dynamically on the body tag the onkeypress and onclick, the context menu doesn't work on the content page using the masterpage.
Is there a way to avoid to use the onkeypress and onclick on the body tag ?

Hi Sameer:
Honestly, I don't remember now the Id and I don't have access to the code.
Enable the Filter, check the HTML to know the ID.

hth,

You all made a great work Bilal, this is maybe the best implementation of an extended DataGrid/GridView I've seen in a lot of time.

I have began work on a similar project and would like to compare your code against mine.
I have a few features in mine that are not included in yours. With a little massaging I believe we could make a very nice GridView.
