Hi Vince,

It is because HTML does not recognize tab character or spaces. You can try to write 'C001 000 001 005      1' in the html page and you will see that the result will be 'C001 000 001 005 1'.

Hi Vince,

As Gordon said, it follows HTML behavior. Actually, there is another workaround. You will need to specify each row OnIntializeRow event and fill the text manually. Replace "space" with " ". Here, I attached my simple sample. Hope this helps.

Hi,

your workaround is ok for webcombocolumn, instead on webgrid into the cell now I have

"C001 000 003 005     1"

we do not have space but the space char  

Why the workaround does not work for webgrid?

Thanks,

Vince

Hi,

i insert spaces on Editing mode ('C000[4 spaces]1') but when i exit from edit mode in the textBox (cell Element) I see only one space ('C000 1').

I need to maintain the spaces after the edit mode.

Thanks,

Vince

Hi Vince,

In fact, the spaces only can be handled when the row did update after exit edit mode. If you only exit edit mode without update, InitializeRow will not be called. Also, I am not prefer you did this scenario on WebGrid. Since user can insert or update with any values via textbox they wanted to, how can you validate them one by one in InitializeRow dynamically?

(Note:You will need to set EditType Custom)

using the InitializeRow I fix the problem when we show data.

Anyway I have the problem when I exit from the edit mode because I insert space chars but when I exit the edit mode on the cell the i lost the spaces and I have only one space char, I need to maintain the space chars.

Thanks,

Vince

Yes, that's exactly i tried to inform you at my previous post. In fact, it is html behaviour. We have not designed to handle that way. But it seems if you are using TextEditor, it can mantain "string".

I am using the WebCombo as editType, We need to maintain the the space in the cell after the selection of the webcomboRow.

Thanks,
