Grid View for ASP.NET MVC - How to display detail data in a pop-up window

This example demonstrates how to create a column's template, add a hyperlink to that template, and show a pop-up window with detail grid data on a hyperlink click.

Display detail data in a pop-up window

Overview

Call a column's SetDataItemTemplateContent method and add a hyperlink control to the template. Handle the hyperlink's Click event. In the handler, specify the URL to the page with detail data, pass the URL as a parameter to the popup control's SetContentUrl method, and invoke a pop-up window.

Razor
settings.Columns.Add(col => {  
    col.FieldName = "CustomerID";  
    col.SetDataItemTemplateContent(container => {  
        Html.DevExpress().HyperLink(hlSettings => {  
            hlSettings.Name = string.Format("hl_{0}", (container as GridViewDataItemTemplateContainer).VisibleIndex);  
            hlSettings.NavigateUrl = "javascript:void(0)";  
            hlSettings.Properties.ClientSideEvents.Click = string.Format("function(s, e) {{ ShowDetailPopup('{0}'); }}", Url.Action("DetailAction", "Home", new { _customerID = (container as GridViewDataItemTemplateContainer).KeyValue.ToString() }));  
            hlSettings.Properties.Text = "Show Orders";  
        }).Render();  
    });  
});  
JavaScript
function ShowDetailPopup(url) {  
    popup.SetContentUrl(url);  
    popup.Show()  
}
