Question

I am currently learning ASP.NET and I’ve been wondering if is possible to find a button that is in a Gridview and perform a ‘Click’ on it when the user clicks on another button not in the Gridview.

Thanks,

Answer 1

Are you looking to do this client side or server side?

Client side, you could find the GridView button via jQuery:

$('#<% buttonId.ClientID %>').click();

Server side, could you set the GridView’s OnClick event to whatever you’d rather have it point to?
