Collapsible Gridview using jquery


Introduction:-
               
                Here I have explained how to create a collapsible gridview having child gridview     control inside it using jquery.
Description:-                
              
                    In this article I will explain how to create a gridview having colapsable functionality using jquery.

Sometimes we are showing all records in a form which is not looks better in design prosperous. To overcome it we have to collapse these records until a user will not expand it.

I am going to explain the entire process step by steps.

I have used checkbox for collapse or expand. If you will checked it ,It will expand and will show you the hidden data or controls inside that and if you unchecked then it will collapse as usual.

Here I am creating a simple web application of  collapsible Gridview .I have taken two gridview control ,the parent gridview  showing data of Employee and the child gridview populating some fields for providing feedback against each employee.

I have taken one .mdf file inside App_Data folder and one linq to sql  classes in App_Code  folder.

Now take an overlook on my solution which will give more clarity.


MySolution





Inside App_data I have used my own sql server database, take a look

database.mdf file


Now I have created two Table as
v  Employee
v  EmploeeFeedback



Employee Table OverView:-

Employee Table defination





EmployeeFeedback Table OverView:-

EmployeeFeedback Table Defination



I have manually enter some data into Employee Table.Here is my data inside that Employee Table





Just add some JS plugin inside Script Folder in Solution.i am using three plugin as

v  jquery-1.4.1.js
v  jquery-1.4.1.min.js
v  jquery-1.4.1-vsdoc.js

These above plugin is by default provided  by  VS-2010.

Now open the .dbml class which is created inside App_code Folder ,Now  Drag and drop your Employee and EmploeeFeedback Table from your .mdf database inside server Explorer .

Now here is the Result View :-

dbml file view



Now come to the designing part,first add a web page  as CollapsibleGridView.aspx

and Take a Gridview control and name it as grdEmployeesAdded.

Now take another Griview  inside the parent gridview which is created earlier and name it as gdViewChild.

Take a look  on the Design View of my page:-

Design view of grid

                            </td>
                        </tr>
                    </ItemTemplate>
                </asp:TemplateField>
            </Columns>
            <EmptyDataTemplate>
                <div style="width: 100%; height: 24px; border: 1px Solid #333333; text-align: center;
                    vertical-align: middle">
                    <asp:Label ID="lblEmptyMessage" runat="server" Text="No Record Found" Style="font-family: Calibri;
                        font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; height: 24px"></asp:Label>
                </div>
            </EmptyDataTemplate>
        </asp:GridView>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Now come to the coding part ,here I have bind Employee records in parent gridview  using linq query.

Here is my Code Behind:-

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
public partial class CollapsibleGridView : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
            BindGridView();
        }
    }
    //@@@@@@@@@ Bind Employee Gridview(parent GridView) @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
    public void BindGridView()
    {
        DataClassesDataContext dc = new DataClassesDataContext();
        var x = from n in dc.Employees select n;
        grdEmployeesAdded.DataSource = x.ToList();
        grdEmployeesAdded.DataBind();
        //@@@@@@@@@ Bind Child Gridview as null to show empty template field @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
        foreach (GridViewRow gvr in grdEmployeesAdded.Rows)
        {
            GridView gvChild = (GridView)gvr.FindControl("gdViewChild");
            gvChild.DataSource = null;
            gvChild.DataBind();
        }
    }
}

Here is my connection string inside web.cofig:-

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="ShibashishColapsibleGridDataBaseConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\ShibashishColapsibleGridDataBase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
  </connectionStrings>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0">
      <assemblies>
        <add assembly="System.Data.Linq, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=B77A5C561934E089"/>
      </assemblies>
    </compilation>
  </system.web>
</configuration>

Now run it,you will get the result as below:-


Collapsed Gridview

When you will check the first row it will expand the relative child  gridview  and vice versa, the following picture wil give yiou the clear vision.

Single row expanded grid




Now check the last row checkbox ,it will expand the last row like below.

Multi row expanded grid




Now uncheck  that two row it will collapse the respective row as below.

All row collapsed grid




Now check the header checkbox it will check all row checkboxes as well as expands all the  row at a time and vice versa like below.
All row expanded grid


You have seen in above example I have shown you both collapsed view as well as expanded view of gridview having child gridview control.

Hope you will like this article.

Keep coding……
