Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Javascript Row Events vs. System Events

    Whats the difference between "Javascript - Row Events onClick" and "Javascript - System Events onRowSelect" in a grid?

    Re: Javascript Row Events vs. System Events

    I'm not sure, but it's probably a matter off timing, i.e. which is called first. Try putting an alert box in each (with different messages) and see which comes up first.

      The System events onRowSelect gets called alot. It popped up a message when I saved the grid (in Alpha). Then again when I loaded the page with the grid (in browser). Then again when I clicked the row. Row Event's onClick NEVER got called. Bug?

        I put this in the System Events, onRowSelect:

        Code:
        alert('Box 1: System Events - onRowSelect');
        and this in the Row Events - onClick:

        Code:
        alert('Box 2: Row Event - onClick');
        When I start the grid, onRowSelect (i.e., Box 1) fires twice with the detail view showing on the page, once with detail view as pop-up.

        When I click on a row, onClick (Box 2) fires, then onRowSelect (Box 1) fires

        If I sort by clicking a column header, onRowSelect fires five times (with a 10 row view).

        I changed it to a 25 row view, and onRowSelect fired five times.

        In either of these last two cases, if the detail is pop-up, then onRowSelect fires four times.

        When I click the detail view link, onClick fires, then onRowSelect fires twice (presumably once for selecting the row, and once for selecting the detail--which is part of the same row)

        When looking at the detail view, if I select the Next or Previous record button, onRowSelect fires once, onClick does not fire.

        I think the answer to your question is that onClick fires only if the row is clicked on by the user, whereas onRowSelect fires whenever a row is selected by clicking, navigation, etc. Thus the names, eh?

            Here are the definition for each event:

            The onRowSelect client side grid system event fires when a Grid row is selected. it also fires when a row is selected for both read only and editable Grids.

            The Javascript onClick row event fires when the user clicks on a row.

            I think the reason why the onRowSelect event fires twice when the grid is started is because the 1st row of the grid is automatically selected when the grid loads or initialiazes so if you have 1 grid and a detail view you will get 2 onRowSelect events firing for each 1st row of the grid, and so on...

            I hope this helps
