Jquery read DatakeyNames value of Selected Rows of GridView in Asp.Net

As we know GridView is a very popular control. We always experiment to enhance the GridView control to provide better experience to user. Since javascript is also a popular clientside language, most of the times we use this in client side operations like validation, Row coloring, cell coloring etc. Now a days Jquery is more popular so that in this article i will explain how you can capture the selected rows of a GridView control and also read the datakeyname values using JQuery. So at first i will tell you how we capture selected rows of a GridView. In this example i don't consider the built in Select command. Instead of select command here i use checkbox to select rows by user. The another important tip is we cannot directly access DataKeyNames values of a GridView. To get the value, here I will use a template column to store the same DataKeyValue in a hiddenfield. After that through iteration by Jquery I will read the hiddenfield values which looks alike datakeynames values.

For selecting/deselecting all checkboxes of a GridView using Javascript click here.


My example output look like below:
GridView_Datakeynames_jQuery

The GridView Control HTML will be:
01<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" DataKeyNames="ID">  
02            <Columns>  
03                <asp:TemplateField>  
04                    <ItemTemplate>  
05                        <asp:CheckBox ID="chkSelect" runat="server" />  
06                        <asp:HiddenField ID="IDVal" runat="server" Value='<%# Eval("ID") %>' />  
07                    </ItemTemplate>  
08                </asp:TemplateField>  
09                <asp:TemplateField>  
10                    <HeaderTemplate>  
11                        Name  
12                    </HeaderTemplate>  
13                    <ItemTemplate>  
14                        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Name") %>'></asp:Label>  
15                    </ItemTemplate>  
16                </asp:TemplateField>  
17            </Columns>  
18        </asp:GridView>

The Jquery Script also given below:
01<script type="text/javascript">  
02    $(document).ready(function() { 
03    var gridView1Control = document.getElementById('<%= GridView1.ClientID %>');  
04    $('#<%= cmdGetData.ClientID %>').click(function (e) {
05        var DataKeyName=""; 
06        $('input:checkbox[id$=chkSelect]:checked', gridView1Control).each(function (item, index) {  
07            if(DataKeyName.length==0)
08            {
09                DataKeyName = $(this).next('input:hidden[id$=IDVal]').val();
10            }
11            else
12            {
13                DataKeyName += "," + $(this).next('input:hidden[id$=IDVal]').val();
14            }
15        });  
16        alert(DataKeyName);
17        return false;  
18    });  
19   });  
20</script>

Now Bind the GridView data within Page_Load Event:
01protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
02    {
03        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
04 
05        dt.Columns.Add("ID");
06        dt.Columns.Add("Name");
07 
08        DataRow oItem = dt.NewRow();
09        oItem[0] = "1";
10        oItem[1] = "Shawpnendu Bikash Maloroy";
11        dt.Rows.Add(oItem);
12 
13        oItem = dt.NewRow();
14        oItem[0] = "2";
15        oItem[1] = "Bimalendu Bikash Maloroy";
16        dt.Rows.Add(oItem);
17 
18        oItem = dt.NewRow();
19        oItem[0] = "3";
20        oItem[1] = "Purnendu Bikash Maloroy";
21        dt.Rows.Add(oItem);
22 
23        GridView1.DataSource = dt;
24        GridView1.DataBind();
25 
26    }

The complete markup language of this example is:
01<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="GridView_DataKeyNames_Jquery.aspx.cs" Inherits="GridView_DataKeyNames_Jquery" %>

11    $(document).ready(function() { 
12    var gridView1Control = document.getElementById('<%= GridView1.ClientID %>');  
13    $('#<%= cmdGetData.ClientID %>').click(function (e) {
14        var DataKeyName=""; 
15        $('input:checkbox[id$=chkSelect]:checked', gridView1Control).each(function (item, index) {  
16            if(DataKeyName.length==0)
17            {
18                DataKeyName = $(this).next('input:hidden[id$=IDVal]').val();
19            }
20            else
21            {
22                DataKeyName += "," + $(this).next('input:hidden[id$=IDVal]').val();
23            }
24        });  
25        alert(DataKeyName);
26        return false;  
27    });  
28   });  
29</script>

Generics

Generics allow us to have type or method which can operate on objects of various types, while providing type safety at the compile time. That means if you define generics class object of type Integer & you are trying to add different type of variable to generic class like String then it will give compile time error. In another sense, if we try to add different types in same list like string and int in a same list then compile time error will be thrown. Generics are available under the namespace System. Collections .Generic. The concept of type parameters is introduce to the .NET Framework with the help of Generics, which makes it possible to design classes & methods which defer the specification of one or more types until that class or method is declared and instantiated by the client code. public class MyGenericClass { void Add(T val) { } ...
