i m using parent child grid and on child grid i m doing Show / hide threw java script. and child grid i bind run time with Templatecolumns like
GridView NewDg = new GridView();
NewDg.ID = "dgdStoreWiseMenuStock";
TemplateField TOTAL = new TemplateField();
TOTAL.HeaderTemplate = new BusinessLogic.GridViewTemplateTextBox(ListItemType.Header, "TOTAL",e.Row.RowIndex );
TOTAL.HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Percentage(5.00);
TOTAL.ItemTemplate = new BusinessLogic.GridViewTemplateTextBox(ListItemType.Item, "TOTAL", e.Row.RowIndex);
NewDg.Columns.Add(TOTAL);
NewDg.DataSource = ds;
NewDg.DataBind();
NewDg.Columns[1].Visible = false;
NewDg.Columns[2].Visible = false;
System.IO.StringWriter sw = new System.IO.StringWriter();
System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htw = new System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(sw);
NewDg.RenderControl(htw);
Now I have one TextBox inside Grid named "TOTAL" I want to Find This TextBox and wanna get its value.
How can Get it ?
You could get the TextBox control inside the corresponding cell of the GridView, using the Controls
property or the FindControl(string id)
method:
TextBox txtTotal = gv.Rows[index].cells[0].Controls[0] as TextBox;
or
TextBox txtTotal = gv.Rows[index].cells[0].Controls[0].FindControl("TOTAL") as TextBox;
where index could be 0 for the first row, or an iterator inside a for loop.
Alternatively, you can use a foreach loop over the GridView's rows:
foreach(GridViewRow row in gv.Rows)
{
TextBox txtTotal = row.cells[0].Controls[0].FindControl("TOTAL") as TextBox;
string value = txtTotal.Text;
// Do something with the textBox's value
}
Besides, you have to keep in mind that, if you're creating the GridView dynamically (and not declaratively in the web form), you won't be able to get this control after a page postback.
There is a great 4 Guys from Rolla article on the subject: Dynamic Web Controls, Postbacks, and View State
As you know you may get TextBox value for example for the first row and the first cell:
((TextBox) dgdStoreWiseMenuStock.Rows[0].Cells[0].Controls[1]).Text;
or change the index of control put 0 if the above line dosen't work.
Try This
TextBox txtTotal = (TextBox)gv.Rows[index].cells[0].FindControl("TOTAL");
string value = txtTotal.Text;
The easiest way to find the control inside the gridview use foreach loop to find the rows
foreach (GridViewRow row in Gridname.Rows)
{
TextBox txttotal = (TextBox)row.FindControl("textboxid_inside_grid");
string var = txttotal.Text;
Response.Write("Textbox value = " + var);
}
