Hi Alessandro,

There's official request for this problem. But we still don't know the estimated time from developer regarding this issue. If you want, I will set this request as high priority feature request. And I'll let you know if I heard something regarding this feature request. Hope this helps.

Hi Alessandro,

OnCustomFilter method invoked when AutomaticFilter feature in WebGrid is set to false and when filtering is needed on data binding process. If you doesn't set that property to false, this event won't be triggered. This problem happen because HTML behaviour that change whitespace into 1 whitespace like I said above. Probably, there's no event that triggered when we type on Filter TextBox. That's why, we couldn't handle changes of WebGrid input on filter bar.

For now the only way to do this filter is using HTML tag [and]nbsp; that will rendered as whitespace in HTML. I also attach the screenshot here. Hope that helps. But for doing this in more elegant method, maybe we should wait for the feature that we suggest inside future request to our developer team. I'll let you know if I heard anything regarding this feature request.

Hi Allessadro,

Sorry, I've put wrong format for the earlier message. To filter data with 2 or more whitespace you can use this format in filter row:

Text&[nbsp];&[nbsp];&[nbsp];Text --> this will be read as Text   Text (with 3 space)
(delete the [ ] symbol)

Is this method work in yours WebGrid? Probably we couldn't handle this in client side. But if you want do this with more elegant, this problematic behaviour have been stacked on our feature request. I'll let you know if I heard something from developer team regarding this problematic behaviour.

Hi Jason,

Regarding to your scenario, I think it's have the same behaviour like BatchUpdate in our WebGrid. This feature enables your end user to make multiple changes to the data in the client side, while at the same time maintaining the changes as they navigate the data around. WebGrid also submits all changes to server-side in a single request, the changes won't be updated to database after the data edited.

For references of BatchUpdate, please visit:

Hope this helps.
