Edit on child gridview collapse the expansion

I have a parent grid GVInvoiceDet. CRUD operation on this grid is working fine. In each row of the parent, I have child grid GVTaxDetails which opens on click of image ie expand/collapse feature.
I am looking for CRUD within child grid also. But when I click on edit within child, the texbox for editing doesn't appear and the parent grid collapses.
Here is child grid rowediting code
protected void GVTaxDetails_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
{
GridView gvTemp = (GridView)sender;
gvUniqueID = gvTemp.UniqueID;
//gvEditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
gvTemp.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
GVInvoiceDet.DataBind();
}
Parent row editing code
protected void GVInvoiceDet_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
{
GVInvoiceDet.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
GVInvoiceDet.DataBind();
BindItemGrid();
}

I got the work done... Posting the code for others if come across similar situation.
In parent rowdatabound have added code to keep the div open and update the editIndex.
protected void GVInvoiceDet_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) {
GridViewRow row = e.Row;
if(row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header)
{
return;
}
else if (row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow )
{
//Find Child GridView control
GridView gvTax = new GridView();
gvTax = (GridView)row.FindControl("GVTaxDetails");
if (gvTax.UniqueID == gvUniqueID)
{
gvTax.EditIndex = gvEditIndex;
//Expand the Child grid
ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(), "Expand", "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE='javascript'>expandcollapse('div" + ((DataRowView)e.Row.DataItem)["itemcd"].ToString() + "','one');</script>");
}
}
}
expandcollapse is function on aspx side:
function expandcollapse(obj, row) {
var div = document.getElementById(obj);
var img = document.getElementById('img' + obj);
if (div.style.display == "none") {
div.style.display = "block";
if (row == 'alt') {
img.src = "Images/minus.png";
}
else {
img.src = "Images/minus.png";
}
img.alt = "Close View Taxes";
}
else {
div.style.display = "none";
if (row == 'alt') {
img.src = "Images/plus.png";
}
else {
img.src = "Images/plus.png";
}
img.alt = "Expand View Taxes";
}
}

gridview edit mode is not getting fired on single click

I want to edit the record in gridview on single click. My gridview is placed inside update panel.
There is a search textbox given and when I type anything in search textbox "txt_Search_TextChanged" event is fired and that text is searched in database and that particular record is fetched and bind to the grid.
Now my problem is: If I click on edit button of grid without searching, then event is fired. But if I search any record and then I click on edit button, it takes 2 click to give result. I have written a script for textbox which is as follows:
enter code here
<script>
function RefreshUpdatePanel() {
__doPostBack('<%= txt_Search.ClientID %>', '');
};

You need to make sure that the grid has focus. The initial click is likely just setting focus on the grid, and then it sees the second click as starting your edit.
A simple ActiveControl = grd_Master; at the end of the txt_Search_TextChanged event should do the trick.

Change Gridview column widths dynamically in edit mode

I have a gridview that can have 1 or 2 controls displayed in 1 column when in edit mode depending on the selection of a dropdown in another column. One control is a textbox the other a label. I have the textbox first and the label beside the textbox after it. My problem is when the textbox and label are showing, the label's text extends into the next column. I would like the column width to be as wide as the controls displayed.
How can I do this?
This is my markup for the grid:

This is my current styling of the grid:
.grid
{background-color: #fff;
border: solid 2px #000;
border-collapse:collapse;
color: #FFF; overflow:auto
}
.grid td {
padding-left: 5px;
color: #000;
font-size: medium;
}
.grid th {
color: #000;
background: #99C3BB;
font-size: medium;
font-weight: bold;
}
.grid caption {
color: #000;
text-align:center;
font-weight:bold;
font-size:1.2em;
padding: 2px;
background-color: #99C3BB;
border: 2px solid black;
}
.grid table tr td {
color: #000;
font-size: small;
padding: 5px;
}
#DeviceGridWrapper
{
height: 250px;
width: 100%;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
The column that is the problem is the 'Address' column. When only the textbox shows the width is set to '90%' programmatically. When the textbox and label are shown, the textbox is set to '50%' and the label is '40%'. They are side-by-side which is what I want. I need the Address column to widen to accomodate both of the controls so that the label does not extend into the next column.
Is there a way to set the Address column to a width that accomodates both controls?
Thanks.

Try using <EditRowStyle> element to the GridView::
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server">
<EditRowStyle BackColor="Red" Width="100%" />
</asp:GridView>

The back end code for loading the USer control :
private void LoadInvestmentDetails(int investmentTypeId, WebTab currentWebTab, int tabIndex)
{
Panel panel = GetPanelToBeLoaded(investmentTypeId);
if (currentWebTab.Tabs[tabIndex].Controls.Count == 0)
{
currentWebTab.Tabs[tabIndex].Controls.Add(panel);
budgetDetailsControl.Initialize(investmentTypeId);
budgetDetailsControl.InvestmentDetailsSaved += new ProjectInvestmentDetailsSavedEventHandler(BudgetDetailsControl_BudgetDetailsSaved);
PreviouslyLoadedTab = int.Parse(currentWebTab.Tabs[currentWebTab.SelectedIndex].UserControlUrl);
}
// other code
}
private Panel GetPanelToBeLoaded(int investmentTypeId)
{
System.Web.UI.Control userControl = GetInvestmentDetailsUserControlUrl();
Panel panel = new Panel();
panel.Controls.Add(userControl);
budgetDetailsControl = (IProjectInvestmentDetailsControl)userControl;
budgetDetailsControl.InvestmentTypeID = investmentTypeId;
return panel;
}
private System.Web.UI.Control GetInvestmentDetailsUserControlUrl()
{
return LoadControl(ProjectCommonKeys.URL_PROJECT_BUDGET_DETAILS);
}
The Usercontrol implments the IprojectInvestmentDetails interface and the initalize function of the UC is called first for the binding etc

I figured out the problem. Each user control bound to the sub tab shud be given a unique Id..or else even if we bind new data the data from the earlier instance will persist.
.
private Panel GetPanelToBeLoaded(int investmentTypeId)
{
System.Web.UI.Control userControl = GetInvestmentDetailsUserControlUrl();
**userControl.ID = investmentTypeId.ToString();**
Panel panel = new Panel();
panel.Controls.Add(userControl);
projectInvestmentDetailsControl = (IProjectInvestmentDetailsControl)userControl;
projectInvestmentDetailsControl.InvestmentTypeID = investmentTypeId;
projectInvestmentDetailsControl.UserContext = userContext;
projectInvestmentDetailsControl.PlanningWizardDataManager = PlanningWizardDataManager;
projectInvestmentDetailsControl.PlanningServiceWrapper = PlanningServiceWrapper;
return panel;
}`
Thanks fr the help...

How do I change the forecolor of a control in a .NET Grid View?

How do I access a control in a grid view so that I can change it's forecolor? In this code below, FindControl() returns null.
protected void mileageRowBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
(e.Row.Cells[1].FindControl("ddlStateCode") as DropDownList).ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.LightBlue;
}
I have also tried e.Row.FindControl("ddlStateCode") and a few other variations. I'm stumped.

Try to wrap your line of code in
if(e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
(e.Row.FindControl("ddlStateCode") as DropDownList).ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.LightBlue;
}
So it will skip header (and footer and a few others).

I guess the better answer to this question is use CSS to change the color of the control text.
Try add the following lines to the ASPX page.
<style type="text/css">
#ddlStateCode
{
color: #FF0000; /* Change to the hexacode you want */
}
</style>
Hope it helps.
