Hello Daniel,

GroupRowInfo is designed with a features which user can customize (add or remove) the info of the group in there. That's why it is designed as text. While persists hyperlink in GroupRowInfo, makes the user could not use the feature anymore. So, the possible way to do your scenario is by using the workaround which I suggested at previous post.

HAndy

It does. It's unfortunate we have to do this, so if it could potentially be considered in a future release that would be great.

Hi Daniel,

That is a default behaviour. When you group a column, no matter what is the type of column, Group row info would be rendered as 'Text'.
If you still want to persist the hyperlink, then you will need to validate in IntializeRow event.

e.g I have a column named 'File' which is hyperlink. Below is my snippet code to persist the hyperlink in Group Row level.

 protected void WebGrid1_InitializeRow(object sender, ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid.RowEventArgs e)
    {
        DataRowView dv;
        if (e.Row.Type == RowType.GroupHeader)
        {
             dv = (DataRowView)e.Row.Children[0].DataRow;
             string text = "<a href= '" + dv["File"].ToString() + "'>"+dv["File"].ToString()+"</a>";
             e.Row.Cells[0].Value = text;
        }
    }

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Handy

When I group by a hyperlink column (see below), the hyperlink disappears at the group by row. I can no longer click on the column value. Do I need to reset the hyperlink at the group by header?

<ISWebGrid:WebGridColumn Caption="HH Name" AllowGrouping="Yes" HyperlinkTarget="Self" ColumnType="HyperLink" HyperlinkFormatString="javascript:testopen()" AllowSorting="Yes" DataMember="vchHHName" Name="vchHHName"> <FooterStyle Font-Bold="true" /> </ISWebGrid:WebGridColumn>

Protected Sub WebGrid1_PrepareDataBinding(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid.DataSourceEventArgs) If Page.IsPostBack = False Then

reportGrid.RootTable.SortedColumns.Clear()

reportGrid.LoadTablesStructureFromXml(Server.MapPath("../Layouts/Holdings.xml"))

"../Layouts/Holdings.xml")) With reportGrid.RootTable.GroupedColumns Dim groupByHHAs WebGridGroup = New WebGridGroup()

groupByHH.ColumnMember = "vchHHName"

groupByHH.GroupInterval = GroupInterval.Text

groupByHH.SortOrder = SortOrder.Ascending

.Add(groupByHH)

End With
