Hidinig and unhiding datagrid columns

[jack]

Hi,

Is it possible to hide and unhide the columns of datagrid during the
runtime. With javascript without posting back to the server.



Thanks for replying me

Yes. You will need to write a function that will find all cells of the
column and set for them style.display="none". You can also set the className
property to a class with the css rule display:none. If you know in advance
which columns you will want to hide, you can assign to the cells distinct
CssClass property. Then on client side you would just need to change the css
display rule for the class.

But this would be applicable if the grid is in the table.
What i talking about is DataGrid control's columns. Is it possible to
hide the column of the datagrid control.

Datagrid is rendered to the client as a <table>. Client side has no idea of
server controls. It knows only plain html.
