{
e.Row.Attributes["onmouseover"] = "this.style.cursor='hand';this.style.textDecoration='underline';";
e.Row.Attributes["onmouseout"] = "this.style.textDecoration='none';";
e.Row.Attributes["onclick"] = ClientScript.GetPostBackClientHyperlink(this.gvdetails, "Select$" + e.Row.RowIndex);
}
}
it is not working. i don't know why?

Found the tutorial about ASP.Net select row in gridview
In ASPX page under GridView tag add:
<SelectedRowStyle BackColor="Orange" />
In code behind try the following:
protected override void Render(System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
foreach (GridViewRow row in PeopleGridView.Rows) {
if (row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) {
row.Attributes["onmouseover"] =
"this.style.cursor='hand';this.style.textDecoration='underline';";
row.Attributes["onmouseout"] =
"this.style.textDecoration='none';";
// Set the last parameter to True
// to register for event validation.
row.Attributes["onclick"] =
ClientScript.GetPostBackClientHyperlink(PeopleGridView,
"Select$" + row.DataItemIndex, true);
}
}
base.Render(writer);
}
You can then catch this event using the RowCommand (something like).
private void PeopleGridView_RowCommand(object sender, System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "Select") {
// Get the list of customers from the session
List<Customer> customerList =
Session["Customers"] as List<Customer>;
Debug.WriteLine(customerList[Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument)].LastName);
}
}
