GridView Row-Click

A simple way to add "select on row-click" functionality to GridView without causing Event validation errors:

        protected override void OnRowCreated(GridViewRowEventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnRowCreated(e);

            if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
            {
                e.Row.Attributes["onClick"] = "this.style.cursor = 'wait';" 
+ Page.ClientScript.GetPostBackEventReference(this, "Select$" + e.Row.RowIndex.ToString(), true);
            }
        }

And how do you handle the click? Just hook up to the GridView's SelectedIndexChanged event handler and check the GridView.SelectedValue property.

ps. for row-hover and striping fun, why not use JQuery? Just implement the grid's RowStyle.CssClass (e.g. set it as 'zootGridRow') and set some style directives to handle the following classes...

                $(function() {

                    // Implement grid-row striping
                    $('#myGrid .zootGridRow:odd').addClass('zootGridAlternateRow');
                    
                    // Implement grid-row hover animation
                    $('#myGrid .zootGridRow').hover(function(){$(this).addClass('zootGridRowHover')}, 
function(){$(this).removeClass('zootGridRowHover')});

                });
