I found the answer. and his worker ...
checkBoxselectedornot () {
var frm=document.forms['aspnetForm'];
var flag=false;
for(var i=0;i<document.forms[0].length;i++)
{
if(document.forms[0].elements[i].id.indexOf('chkDownloadSelectedEvent')!=-1)
{
if(document.forms[0].elements[i].checked)
{
flag=true
}

alert('Please select at least one Event.')
return false
}
}
and the girdview code ...
<asp:BoundField ItemStyle-Width ="100px" DataField ="EventStartDate" DataFormatString ="{0:g}" HeaderText ="<%$ Resources:stringsRes, ctl_EventList_StartDate %>" SortExpression ="EventStartDate" HtmlEncode ="true" ItemStyle-Wrap ="false" />
<asp:BoundField ItemStyle-Width="100px" DataField="EventDate" DataFormatString="{0:g}" HeaderText="<%$ Resources:stringsRes, ctl_EventList_Date %>" SortExpression="EventDate" HtmlEncode="true" ItemStyle-Wrap="false" />
<asp:ButtonField ItemStyle-Width="150px" ButtonType="Link" DataTextField="EventName" HeaderText="<%$ Resources:stringsRes, ctl_EventList_Event %>" SortExpression="EventName" CommandName="show_details" CausesValidation="false" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="EventLocation" HeaderText="<%$ Resources:stringsRes, ctl_EventList_Location %>" SortExpression="EventLocation" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText ="Select">
<ItemTemplate >
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkDownloadSelectedEvent" runat ="server" AutoPostBack ="false" Onclick="eachCheck();"/>

You will need to add custom Javascript to your page for client side notification. Here's a method I wrote that works with a GridView called "GridView1" (this should be the default name if you just dragged the control onto the ASPX page):
<script type="text/javascript">
function ClientCheck() {
var valid = false;
var gv = document.getElementById("GridView1");
for (var i = 0; i < gv.all.length; i++) {
var node = gv.all[i];
if (node != null && node.type == "checkbox" && node.checked) {
valid = true;
break;
}
}
if (!valid) {
alert("Invalid. Please select a checkbox to continue.");
}
return valid;
}
</script>
You can see that it sets a variable to the control GridView
to begin with, then iterates over all the children in the loop for
. If the child has a value checkbox
and is checked
, we set the variable valid
to true. If we reach the end of the iteration and do not check the boxes, it valid
will remain false and we will execute the warning.
To tie this to yours GridView
in your ASPX page, first make a column of buttons TemplateField
and surround with LinkButton
your client side code. If you've used the designer to customize your columns, you can use the Convert this field to TemplateField link in the column editor). Here's an example of the source you end up with:
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Button Field" ShowHeader="False">
<ItemTemplate>
<span onclick="return ClientCheck();">
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CommandName="IDClick" Text='<%# Eval("YourDataSourceItem") %>'></asp:LinkButton>
</span>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
// ...your remaining columns...
Usage TemplateField
allows us to add whatever client code we like. Here we add span
and use onclick
to call our method ClientCheck
.
If you're not worried about the warning, you can achieve your goals by using a control CustomValidator
that runs on the server side.
Hope this helps.

var grid = document.getElementById("gridId"); //Retrieve the grid
var inputs = grid.getElementsByTagName("input"); //Retrieve all the input elements from the grid
var isValid = false;
for (var i=0; i < inputs.length; i += 1) { //Iterate over every input element retrieved
if (inputs[i].type === "checkbox") { //If the current element type is checkbox, then it is wat we need
if(inputs[i].checked === true) { //If the current checkbox is true, then atleast one checkbox is ticked, so break the loop
isValid = true;
break;
}
}
}
if(!isValid) {
alert('Check at least one checkbox');
}
