How to get the index of the gridview with click of asp button

[laziale]

Hello - I want to get the index of the row where the button is clicked. Please note that I am using EventArgs, not GridViewCommandEventArgs, since with GridViewCommandEventArgs nothing is happening, once the button is clicked. Thx, Laziale

Can you post your code?

You have to use e.RowIndex, where e is EventArgs.

hello thx for your reply and here is my code: backend:

protected void updateNote(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
string selectedIndex = "";
int index = 0;
index = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument);
// index = 1;
// Button bttn = (Button)sender;

     GridViewRow row = gvOrderNotes.Rows\[index\];
    
         ListItem item = new ListItem();
        item.Text = Server.HtmlDecode(row.Cells\[3\].Text);
        selectedIndex = item.Text;
    }

html:

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Button runat="server" ID="ChkUpdate" onclick="updateNote" AutoPostBack="true" Width="160%" Text="Update Order"/>
<ajaxToolkit:ConfirmButtonExtender ID="chkUpdateConfirmBtnExtender" runat="server" TargetControlID="chkUpdate" DisplayModalPopupID="modalPopupExtenderChkUpdate"></ajaxToolkit:ConfirmButtonExtender>
<ajaxToolkit:ModalPopupExtender ID="modalPopupExtenderChkUpdate" runat="server" TargetControlID="chkUpdate" PopupControlID="pnlChkUpdate"
OKControlID="chkUpdateOK" CancelControlID="chkUpdateCancel" BackgroundCssClass="modalBackground" />
</ItemTemplate>

Thx for your help one more time. Laziale

there is no rowIndex under EventArgs e. I have just Equals, GetHashCode, GetType and ToString. Thx for your help though. Laziale

Why dont you use rowcommand event of gridview.. use your button like in the link

try this, Add commandArgument in tag

<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("YourDataFiled")%>'

              CommandArgument = "Button1"  OnClick = "Button1\_Click" /> 

c# code

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Button button = (Button)sender;

    string CommandName = button.CommandName;

    string CommandArgument = button.CommandArgument;
    int index = Int32.parse(button.CommandArgument);


} 

Hope this helps.
