Context Menu on datagrid.

[Luis Esteban Valencia]

I need to make a right click menu on a datagrid, because each row of the
datagrid has many options. Its very easy to use button columns but its not
beatiful for the user because it would be like 8 buttons. so the best way I
think is to make a contextual menu with 8 different options for each row.
Each option of the contextual menu will show me details on another page for
example.

Thanks

for each cell that you need a menu, build out the menu in javascript and
insert it into the datagrid cell in the itemdatabound event handler. it
would be the same idea as inserting a messagebox or a control in a datagrid
cell, except that it would be javascript responding to a mouseover event

Please show me the code. I am not MVP . Each item of the menu must be
executed on the server.

use this as a starting point in the itemdatabound event handler
e.Item.Cells[1].Attributes.Add("onmouseout","Menu();");

Menu() is your clientside javascript function which you will need to build
to show a menu
