Hi Bernard, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion’s support. 

Query 1: How can I create hyperlink in a column with col.Field value as text? 

We have already discussed this query in the following Knowledge Base document. 

https://www.syncfusion.com/kb/3768/how-to-place-hyperlink-in-grid-column  

Query 2: What I want to get is to click on the name of the employee in the grid to get it's details. 

We have achieved your requirement by using “RecordClick” event of Grid control and refer to the below code example.  

@(Html.EJ().Grid<object>("FlatGrid") 

        .Datasource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.datasource) 

        

        .ClientSideEvents(eve => eve.RecordClick("recordclick")) 

        .Columns(col => 

        { 

            col.Field("EmployeeID").HeaderText("Employee ID").IsPrimaryKey(true).TextAlign(TextAlign.Right).Width(75).Add(); 

            col.Field("EmployeeName").HeaderText("Name").Width(100).Add(); 

            col.Field("City").Width(100).Add(); 

             

        }) 

) 

<script> 

    function recordclick(args) { 

        //Get the details of the row when click the name of the employee 

        if ($(args.cell).index() == 1) { 

            alert("Employee ID:" + args.data.EmployeeID + "Name:" + args.data.EmployeeName + "City:" + args.data.City); 

        } 

    } 

</script>

Hi Saravanan,

thanks for answering my questions. You gave me the link to Knowledge Base for creating a hyperlink in a column. I saw that before, but, If you look at the picture of grid in that example, column "Manage records" has fixed text "View", which is text for the hyperlink. 

col.HeaderText("Manage Records").Template(" <a rel='nofollow' href='#''>View</a>").Add();

I do not want to have fixed text for that, I want values from column OrderID, for example, as text for the hyperlink. So, how can I replace "View" in template with cell value?

Thank You.

Bernard.

Hi Bernard, 

By default Grid uses JsRender template and we can achieve your requirement with the below code example. 

@(Html.EJ().Grid<object>("FlatGrid") 

          . . . 

        .Columns(col => 

        { 

            . . . 

            col.HeaderText("Manage Records").Template("<a rel='nofollow' href='#''>{{:OrderID}}</a>").Add(); 

             

        }) 

)
