Hi all,

I will have a gridview with checkboxes and some amount fields. I would like to display the sum of the amount in gridview footer depending on the checked items by the user. Can any one give me a sample code

I tried but doesn't get the appropriate. I just found the normal way to display in the footer but i did not find the required i asked. Can you please post me the link for my exact one

For OP: What about taking leads from the normal way and try to code yourself?
Why is it that always *exact* code is needed?

I am not asking for exact code actually my problem is as i am having list of check boxes inside the gridview for each and every checked event i have to do my validation and should display the total in the footer. So i am asking a sample code

Yes :)
I just followed up/added that to your answer. It was my response based on his comment to your answer.

Solution 2

No exact code!

Use Gridview RowDataBound (or DataGrid's ItemDataBound) event. In it, check the checkbox value and based on it keep track of total. At the end, use this total and display where ever needed.

Try!

Ok but if i have sum n number of check boxes let us suppose some 100 if i select some 50 or above for each and every event postback will occur and this will not be good i think so

Thats new to question! If you want to have a runtime total then why do you want to have a postback? Why not do this on client side using Javascript?

Ok
