Hi,

I have a column in my grid that has a link on it that is built server side when the data is loaded. I also have multi select enabled so the user can select several files for download as a self extracting exe. The link in the column is for a direct download of a single file.

The issue is when the user clicks the link it also selects the row which I don't want to happen.

Is there a way to get around this? Possibly make the rows only selectable via the checkbox instead of clicking anywhere on the row.

Thanks,

Snorkel

Use multiselect:true and multykey: "ctrKey" - this way the selection is done only when the ctr key is pressed

Tony,

The problem with that is the check box still checks itself when the user clicks the row, so many users will think that the row is selected.

A better solution would be to have a option where the row is considered selected only if the check box is checked.

Also the users of my app would probably complain about have to do

a CTRL click to select a row.

Any other ideas how to have a link in a column and seperate that click from the row select click?

Later,

Snorkel

Will see if we can implement such logic. Thanks.
