Hello Xin8,

We do have that method, but it should be like that. You need to know that the method is case-sensitive.
You should use GetFooterCellByName. However, I am not sure that the current table stucture has this methods. Would you mind to send me a simple runable sample that similiars with your current WebGrid structure?

Hello Handy Surya,

Thanks for your reply.

I have tried GetFooterCellByName but still didn't work.

I attached a sample for the snippet code.

May I know the purpose of using the GetFooterCellByName method on your page? Do you need to do something like re-calculate the sum of a column in RootTable when row is changed?

If that so, please try to use the new client-side API shown in following snippet code to get the same result.

var RootTable = grid.RootTable;
var FooterElement = RootTable.GetElement(WG40.COLFOOTER, WG40.HTML);
var FooterText = FooterElement.childNodes[1].childNodes[1].innerText;

Hope this helps.

hi xin8,

i found the solution for this,

here some snippet code to share:

var grid = ISGetObject("WebGrid1");

var table = grid.GetRootTable();

var htmlTable = table.GetElement(WG40.COLFOOTER, WG40.HTMLTABLE);

var fotter1= htmlTable.cells[1];

hope it may help you.

Hello Xin8,

Unfortunately, your sample does not help at all. As I said before, I need to know at least your WebGrid structure. The element is created based on your WebGrid structure. So, I would need the structure and it should be also runable.
Btw, haven't I said that the method in javascript is case-sensitive?
There is no method, getFooterCellByName but it should be GetFooterCellByName.
Besides, that method is not existed in Tables, but it is only available in SubTables.
Please refer into ms-help://ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid.V7/ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid/WebGridSubTables Reference.html in our WebGrid Documentation.

FYI, there is also another way to obtain the footer element. I also attached my simple sample as references. In my sample, I update footer 3 which is calculated from footer1 and footer2.
Hope this helps.

Handy

Thanks Yudi, Handy and Ooi for the help.

I have changed

  var footerAmount1 = ISGetObject("WebGrid1").Tables["tableName"].GetFooterCellByName(htmlTable.rows.length - 1, "sel");
		     

to 

  var footerAmount1 = ISGetObject("WebGrid1").GetRootTable().GetElement(WG40.COLFOOTER, WG40.HTMLTABLE).cells[4];

and it works.
