When no data in a column,onServerEditRow is not working

Question

Hello,I'm working on ej:grid using OnServerEditRow.I tried to update a column which has no data (other column in the same row has data).  I typed something and clicked Save button in the grid, nothing happens.  I cannot save data.  However, If there's a data in a column, and I modified data and clicked Save button, onServerEditRow was fired.    I attached sample solution that happens this issue.  1. Try to edit first_name column on a first row in grid.  Then click Save Button.  Nothing happens. (onServerEditRow  event not fired)2. Try to edit first_name column on a second row in grid.  Then click Save Button.  onServerEditRow event will be fired.How should I fix this issue?Best Regards,Yukiko Attachment: test_39045309.7z

Hi Yukiko,

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support.

We have analyzed the reported problem and found that the cause of problem is null value set to the first row for first_name column. In this case, type has been set to null instead of string|number. To overcome this problem, we suggest to set the Type as “string” as shown in the following code example.

<ej:Grid ID="Grid1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" DataSourceID="test34" ClientIDMode="AutoID" OnServerAddRow="Grid1_ServerAddRow" OnServerEditRow="Grid1_ServerEditRow">

.....

<ej:Column Field="first_name" Type="string" Width="200px">

</ej:Column>

</Columns>

</ej:Grid>

Please find the modified sample:
