Javascript from Datagrid won't fire

[Guest]

I have a datagrid with a linkbutton for editing. I'm trying to run some
javascript when the link button is clicked to show a wait message. Everything
works fine the first time after the page loads but on subsequent postbacks,
the script does not run.

The following code is inlcuded in the the ItemDatabound sub in the code
behind.

dim l as linkbutton
if e.item.itemType = ListItemType or e.Item.ItemType = AlternatingItem then

l = ctype(e.item.Cells(0).FindControl(lnkbutEdit"), LinkButton)
l.attributes.Add("onclick", "return busyBox.Show();")

end if

Thanks

Mardy,

When are you adding the script to the page? Or does it exist in a .js file?

It may be that the script isn't being output on postbacks.

The script is referenced from a .js file.

Mardy,

Is there any difference between the html output the first time as compared
to after a postback? If there is a difference could you show the html that
is being output?

No difference in the html

Arghhh

I found the problem. I am using a component for scrolling the datagrid. I
took it out to test an alternative scrolling mechanism and that solved my
javascript problem.

Thanks Justin

Mardy have you got that working?

Yes Patrick

I had a control on the page that was apparently interferring with my script.

Thanks
