How to add custom HTML attributes to buttons in the command column?

3 mins read

By default, the htmlAttributes property is available in Button. By using this property, you can add the custom attribute in the JavaScript Grid command column button.

The following code example demonstrates how to set the custom attribute to the Grid command column.

JS

<div id="Grid"></div>
    <div id="commanddialog"></div>
    <script>
        $(function () {
            $("#Grid").ejGrid({                
                dataSource: window.employeeView,
                enableRowHover: false,
                allowSelection: false,
                columns: [
                { field: "EmployeeID", headerText: "Employee ID", isPrimaryKey: true, editType: ej.Grid.EditingType.NumericEdit, textAlign: ej.TextAlign.Right, width: 100 },
                { field: "FirstName", headerText: "First Name", width: 100 },
                { field: "LastName", headerText: "Last Name", width: 100 },
                { field: "HireDate", headerText: "Hire Date", width: 100, format: "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", textAlign: ej.TextAlign.Right },
                { field: "Country", headerText: "Country", width: 100 },
                {
                    headerText: "Employee Details",
                    commands: [
                    {
                        type: "details",
                        buttonOptions: {
                            htmlAttributes: { id: "CustomButton", class: "btn-primary", style: "height: 28px; width: 100px;" },
                            text: "Details",
                            click: "onClick"
                        }
                    }
                    ],
                    isUnbound: true,
                    textAlign: ej.TextAlign.Center,
                    width: 150
                }
                ]
            });    

 

MVC

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "GridFeatures";
    Dictionary<string, object> btn = new Dictionary<string, object>();
    btn.Add("id", "CustomButton");
    btn.Add("class", "btn-primary");
    btn.Add("style", "height: 28px; width: 100px;");
}
@(Html.EJ().Grid<MVCGrid.EmployeeView>("CustomGrid")
        .Datasource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.datasource)
        .EnableRowHover(false)
        .AllowSelection(false)
        .Columns(col =>
        {
            col.Field("EmployeeID").HeaderText("Employee ID").IsPrimaryKey(true).TextAlign(TextAlign.Right).Width(100).Add();
            col.Field("FirstName").HeaderText("First Name").Width(100).Add();
            col.Field("LastName").HeaderText("Last Name").Width(100).Add();
            col.Field("HireDate").HeaderText("Hire Date").TextAlign(TextAlign.Right).Width(100).Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}").Add();
            col.Field("Country").Width(100).HeaderText("Country").Add();
            col.HeaderText("Employee Details").Commands(command =>
            {
                command.Type("detail")
                       .ButtonOptions(new Syncfusion.JavaScript.Models.ButtonProperties()
                       {
                           HtmlAttributes = btn,
                           Text = "Details",
                           Click = "onClick"
                       }).Add();
            })
            .IsUnbound(true)
            .TextAlign(TextAlign.Center)
            .Width(150)
            .Add();
        })
        )
