Select a single radio button from a grid using javascript in ASP.NET

How to manage a radio button in a Gridview? I have tried to select a single radio button out of multiple radio buttons in a Gridview. You can perform this using two ways. The first one is to use server side code. Use checked change property of radio button and find out which radio button has raised the event? and select that radio button; and make others uncheck. You need to set the “AutoPostBack” property of radio button to true to handle “OnCheckedChanged” event.
However, the another way to do is by using javascript. You need to write the following javascript in an aspx page where you are using your Gridview.

function CheckOnOff(rdoId,gridName)
{
    var rdo = document.getElementById(rdoId);
    /* Getting an array of all the "INPUT" controls on the form.*/
    var all = document.getElementsByTagName("input");
    for(i=0;i<all.length;i++)
    { 
        /*Checking if it is a radio button, and also checking if the
        id of that radio button is different than "rdoId" */
        if(all[i].type=="radio" && all[i].id != rdo.id)
        {
            var count=all[i].id.indexOf(gridName);
            if(count!=-1)
            {
               all[i].checked=false;
            }
        }
     }
     rdo.checked=true;/* Finally making the clicked radio button CHECKED */
}

You have to set the following properties of a radio button in a Gridview, to allow this script run properly.

<asp:GridView ID="myGrid" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" >
    <Columns>
        <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Select">
            <ItemTemplate>
                <asp:RadioButton id="rdobutton"  runat="server" OnClick="javascript:CheckOnOff(this.id,'myGrid');"></asp:RadioButton>           </ItemTemplate>
        </asp:TemplateField>
    </Columns>
</asp:GridView>

Tip/Trick: Fix Common SEO Problems Using the URL Rewrite Extension

Search engine optimization (SEO) is important for any publically facing web-site.  A large % of traffic to sites now comes directly from search engines, and improving your site’s search relevancy will lead to more users visiting your site from search engine queries.  This can directly or indirectly increase the money you make through your site. This blog post covers how you can use the free Microsoft  URL Rewrite Extension  to fix a bunch of common SEO problems that your site might have.  It takes less than 15 minutes (and no code changes) to apply 4 simple  URL Rewrite  rules to your site, and in doing so cause search engines to drive more visitors and traffic to your site.  The techniques below work equally well with both ASP.NET Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC based sites.  They also works with all versions of ASP.NET (and even work with non-ASP.NET content). [In addition to blogging, I am also now using Twitter for quick updates and to sh...

ASP.NET MVC - Set custom IIdentity or IPrincipal

Here's how I do it. I decided to use IPrincipal instead of IIdentity because it means I don't have to implement both IIdentity and IPrincipal. Create the interface interface ICustomPrincipal : IPrincipal { int UserId { get ; set ; } string FirstName { get ; set ; } string LastName { get ; set ; } } CustomPrincipal public class CustomPrincipal : ICustomPrincipal { public IIdentity Identity { get ; private set ; } public bool IsInRole ( string role ) { return false ; } public CustomPrincipal ( string email ) { this . Identity = new GenericIdentity ( email ); } public int UserId { get ; set ; } public string FirstName { get ; set ; } public string LastName { get ; set ; } } CustomPrincipalSerializeModel - for serializing custom information into userdata field in FormsAuthenticationTicket object. public class CustomPrincipalSerializeMode...

linq orderby multiple columns dynamically

So, it's been a while, but I thought I take moment and do my annual blog post ;). I've been playing around with  ASP.NET MVC  and the Linq stuff for  NHibernate  recently. I was in need of an OrderBy extension method that could take a SQL-Like OrderBy string and sort a IQueryable<> or IEnumerable<> collection. I wrote up an implementation that worked, but I just wasn't satisfied with its internals (quite a bit of reflection to get the correct type to construct a LambdaExpression, etc) At any rate, I couldn't leave well enough alone, and, after a bit of Googling, I ran across this  StackOverflow  answer about Dynamic LINQ OrderBy . The extension method wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but that ApplyOrder method is slick, and solved the portion of my implementation that was bothering me. So, I though I would post up my version in case anybody finds it useful. It handles the following inputs: list.OrderBy( "SomeProperty" ); list.Ord...
