I have Created A gridview, in which there is a column which have some image buttons to perform some action. along with it, i have also created sorting event on header click.
When i click over "Task Title" Header, command goes to RowCommand event of Grid View where i have detected a image button and perfromed actions according to their CommandName.
But the problem is i want to sort column and command is directed to rowCommand where it is unable to find imagebutton.
How can i resolve this ??
aspx code is :
<asp:GridView ID="TableTask" runat="server" BackColor="White" BorderColor="#CCCCCC"
BorderStyle="None" BorderWidth="1px" CellPadding="3" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
ViewStateMode="Enabled" Width="300px" Style="margin-left: 50px; margin-top: 50px;
margin-bottom: 50px;" RowStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" OnRowCommand="TableTask_RowCommand"
OnRowCreated="TableTask_RowCreated">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Task Titl`enter code here`e" SortExpression="Task_Title">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblTaskName" Text='<%#BIND("Task_Title") %>' runat="server"></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText=" ">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:ImageButton ID="btnView" runat="server" CommandName="View" ImageUrl="~/Images/ViewIcon.png"
ToolTip="View" />
<asp:ImageButton ID="btnEdit" runat="server" CommandName="Change" ImageUrl="~/Images/EditIcon.png"
ToolTip="Edit" />
<asp:ImageButton ID="btnDelete" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("Task_ID") %>' runat="server"
CommandName="Remove" ImageUrl="~/Images/DeleteIcon.png" ToolTip="Delete" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
<FooterStyle BackColor="White" ForeColor="#000066" />
<HeaderStyle BackColor="Gray" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<PagerStyle BackColor="White" ForeColor="#000066" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
<RowStyle ForeColor="#000066" />
<SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#669999" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<SortedAscendingCellStyle BackColor="#F1F1F1" />
<SortedAscendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#007DBB" />
<SortedDescendingCellStyle BackColor="#CAC9C9" />
<SortedDescendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#00547E" />
</asp:GridView>
and Code behind RowCommand method is defined as follows:
protected void TableTask_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
GridViewRow gvr = (GridViewRow)((ImageButton)e.CommandSource).NamingContainer;
int rowIndex = gvr.RowIndex;
GridViewRow gv = TableTask.Rows[rowIndex];
Label task_title = (Label)gv.FindControl("lblTaskName");
if (e.CommandName == "View")
{
// My code
}
if (e.CommandName == "Change")
{
// My code
}
if (e.CommandName == "Remove")
{
// My code
}
}
It gives exception when we are creating GridViewRow object 'gvr'.
Exception is : Unable to cast object of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView' to type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.ImageButton'.
