I have an issue with having a asp.net Grid View loaded into a div

  • 0

I have an issue with having a asp.net Grid View loaded into a div tag on a page (UI/Host.aspx). The Grid View itself is on a seperate page (GridViews/GridView1.aspx) and I’m using the jQuery load() function to load this page into the div tag.

My problem is when sorting the grid view it tries to postback to the page that’s hosting it, and comes back with the error “Unable to find page UI/GridView1.aspx”, is there a way to override this so that it post backs to itself, (which I assumed it would but doesn’t) or is there an easier way to do the sorting.

Is there any other way of doing this, even if it means getting rid of the GridView altogether and using a repeater and table?

Below is the code:

UI/Hosts.aspx


  //jQuery to load the div with the page UI/Hosts.aspx
  $(document).ready(function() {
    StartRefresh();
  });



function startRefresh()
  {
    refreshID = setInterval(function() {
                DisplayDate();
                $("#divDests").load("../GridViews/Gridview1.aspx?ConfigID=" + $("#ctl00_MainContent_dlConfiguration").val() + "&ModuleID=" + $("#ctl00_MainContent_ddlModule").val());
            }, $("#ctl00_MainContent_ddlRefresh :selected").val());
  }

GridViews/Gridview1.aspx;

        </Columns>
    </asp:GridView>

            </ContentTemplate>
    </asp:UpdatePanel>
</form>

</body>
</html>

And the onSort Event Code (However it never hits this)

protected void gvLiveDest_Sorting(object sender, GridViewSortEventArgs e)
{
    if (string.Compare(e.SortExpression, ViewState["SortField"].ToString(), true) == 0)
    {
        _sortDir = (_sortDir == "ASC") ? "DESC" : "ASC";
    }
    else
        _sortDir = "ASC";

    _SortField = e.SortExpression;
    ViewState["SortField"] = e.SortExpression;
    ViewState["sortDir"] = _sortDir;

    BindLiveDestination();
}

    I switched over to client-side paging/sorting a while ago and haven’t been happier. Of course, you would need to set AllowSorting="false" and AllowPaging="false" in your GridView.
