Question

I am currently working in ASP.Net / C#. I am trying to make the server redirect to another page using via the rows in a datagrid, however, my code doesn’t seem
to work. Any help would be appreciated.

  protected void GridView1_RowCreated()
{
    foreach (GridViewRow row in GridView1.Rows)
    {
        Color color = row.BackColor;
        string color2 = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToHtml(color);
        Session["" + row.Cells[0].Text + ""] = row.Cells[0].Text;
        //row.Attributes.Add("onclick", "zz(); return false;");
        /*if (row.RowState == DataControlRowState.Alternate)
        {
            row.Attributes.Add("onclick", "redirectFunction(); return false;");
            //row.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "this.style.backgroundColor='   #FFFFFF';");
            //row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='" + color2 + "';");
            //row.Attributes.Add("onclick", cookie.Value = row. GridView1.SelectedRow.Cells[0].Text);
            //row.Attributes.Add("onclick", "zz(); return false;");
        }
        else
        {
            //row.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "this.style.backgroundColor='   #FFFFFF';");
            //row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='" + color2 + "';");
            //row.Attributes.Add("onclick", "zz(); return false;");
        }*/
    }
}

        public void redirectFunction()
        {
    Response.RedirectPermanent("View.aspx");
        }

        Other page 
        if(Session["session"].ToString() != null)
        {
            // do something
        }

It looks like you are adding a client side on click event and then trying to call a c# method which won’t work.

This code:

foreach (GridViewRow row in GridView1.Rows)
{
    row.Attributes.Add("onclick", "redirectFunction()");
    // Or if you want to pas in an id
    row.Attributes.Add("onclick", "redirectFunction(" + rowId + ")");
}

is adding a javascript click event to the row and you are telling it to call a javascript method. You then need to add the javascript method to your aspx page:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function redirectFunction() {
       alert("do you see this??");
       window.location = "View.aspx";
    }
</script>

I have added an alert statement, you can get rid of it but do you see this popup? If not check for any javascript errors on the page.

You could also do this with jQuery (it’s much easier):

$('.yourrowclassname).click(function () {
    window.location = "View.aspx";
});

This means you do don’t need to add the attribute in code, just use/add a class to the row.
