Gridview RowUpdate behaving weird inside updatepanel

Question

Hi,

I want to update gridview row. But somehow my gridview rowcount is set to 0 on RowUpdating event. No idea whats going wrong. Please let me know what am doing wrong.

Here is my code:

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="updTrackerItem" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional" ChildrenAsTriggers="false">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <table cellspacing="5" id="Table4">
            <tr>
                <td>
                    <asp:Label ID="lblTrackingDate" Text="Enter Request for Task Order Proposals Accepted by Office of Acquisitions Date:"
                        runat="server" AssociatedControlID="txtDate"></asp:Label>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="txtDate" runat="server" MaxLength="11" AutoPostBack="true" OnTextChanged="txtDate_TextChanged"
                        ValidationGroup="valTracker"></asp:TextBox>
                    <ajaxToolkit:CalendarExtender ID="CalendarExtender1" runat="server" PopupButtonID="ibtnCalendar2"

Answer 1

Hai ,

Instead of GridViewRow row = gvTrackerItem.Rows[e.RowIndex];

use this

GridViewRow row =  (GridViewRow)gvTrackerItem.Rows[e.RowIndex]

and see whether you get row index... just give a try

OR

check ur databind method

OR

CausesValidation="false" for update button might do it for you..
