c# - Enabling And Disabling Buttons In GridView:
In this article  a GridView that has a number of buttons that you need to enable or disable all at once and don't want to have to force a post back on your users in order to loop through them all. By using only a simple js function.

When a GridView renders on the page, it is simply an HTML table and you can traverse it just like you would any other HTML table using JavaScript.

The following code to do a basic version of this in order to enable or disable all buttons in a GridView. First the code gets an instance of the GridView using the ClientID of the GridView, then create a collection of all input controls in the GridView. Next it loops through each input control and checks the type (this is necessary because input controls include not only submit buttons but also things like textboxes). Finally we either enable or disable the submit button.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function disableButtons() 
{
    var gridViewID = "<%=gvReporter.ClientID %>";
    var gridView = document.getElementById(gridViewID);
    var gridViewControls = gridView.getElementsByTagName("input");

    for (i = 0; i < gridViewControls.length; i++) 
    {
        // if this input type is button, disable
        if (gridViewControls[i].type == "submit") 
        {
            gridViewControls[i].disabled = true;
        }
    }
}

function enableButtons() {
    var gridViewID = "<%=gvReporter.ClientID %>";
    var gridView = document.getElementById(gridViewID);
    var gridViewControls = gridView.getElementsByTagName("input");

    for (i = 0; i < gridViewControls.length; i++) {
        // if this input type is button, disable
        if (gridViewControls[i].type == "submit") 
        {
            gridViewControls[i].disabled = false;
        }
    }
}
</script>
