Editing Selected GridView Row using Textboxes (in a div)

Mar 31 2014 8:26 PM
Hello.
 
I am wondering how I can edit a selected row (by a link button) by showing the cell values in textboxes.
 
I have this code so far.

ASP.NET
-----------------
<!--Invisible textboxes for editing-->
<div id="div1" runat="server" visible="false">
                        <table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" class="cont-table">                            
                            <tr>
                                <td class="header" style="width:150px;">Leave Type</td>
                                <td class="cont" style="padding:5px; width:300px;">
                                    <asp:Textbox ID="txtLeaveType" runat="server" AutoPostBack="false" Font-Size="12px" Enabled="False" Width="290px">
                                    </asp:Textbox>
                                </td>                            
                                <td class="header" style="width:150px;"> Application Date</td>
                                <td class="cont" style="padding:5px;">
                                    <asp:TextBox ID="txtEffAppDate" runat="server"  Font-Size="12px"  Enabled="False"  Width="150"></asp:TextBox> &nbsp;
                                </td>
                            </tr>
</table>

<!--grid view-->


<asp:GridView ID="EmpLeaveAppGV1" CssClass="datagrid gridfont" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" GridLines="none"  
                            CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333" EmptyDataText= "No current record found in the database." Width="868px" OnRowCommand="GridViewRowCommand"><%--OnRowDeleting="EmpLeaveAppGV1_SelectedIndexChanged"--%>
                        <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#333333" />
                        <Columns>

                                <asp:TemplateField HeaderStyle-BorderStyle="None" ItemStyle-Width="45" ItemStyle-CssClass="right-shadow" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center">
                                    <Itemtemplate>
                                        <asp:LinkButton ID ="lbtnEmpHist" ToolTip="Edit" CssClass="edit-item" runat="server" CommandName="EditPending" ForeColor="Blue"></asp:LinkButton>
                                        <asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnEmpStatus" ToolTip="Delete" CssClass="delete-item" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" ForeColor="Aquamarine"></asp:LinkButton>
                                    </Itemtemplate>
                                </asp:TemplateField>

                                <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Employee Name" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="left"  HeaderStyle-BorderStyle="None" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="left" ItemStyle-Width="160">
                                   <ItemTemplate>
                                        <asp:Label ID="lblEmpNameFull" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("EmpNameFull") %>'></asp:Label>
                                    </ItemTemplate>
                                </asp:TemplateField>
-----------------

C# Code Behind
------------
 protected void GridViewRowCommand(Object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName=="EditPending")
        {
            int LeaveTranID = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument);
           int rowindex = EmpLeaveAppGV1.SelectedIndex;

            Label lblLeaveType = (Label)(EmpLeaveAppGV1).Rows[rowindex].FindControl("lblLeaveType");
           

            txtLeaveType.Text = lblLeaveType.Text;
           

           
            div1.Visible = true;
        }
    }
------------


And can someone explain to me what this line of code can do? plss  make it specific, I cant understand the .Parent.Parent

  using (GridViewRow row = (GridViewRow)((LinkButton)sender).Parent.Parent)


i just found this on the internet..
Any help would be so much appreciated.
Thanks and have a nice day!
