Checkboxes in ItemTemplate

[David C]

I have a GridView with 6 checkboxes in ItemTemplate. It looks like
this. Nothing special. I cannot use the GridView's line by line edit
function because it would be just to cumbersome. This of this as a
set of survey questions.

<asp:GridView ID="gvTest" runat="server">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox2" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>

But this has to postback and the problem is with the amount of data
being exchanged between the server and the brower. It is
unacceptable, so I am open to ideas.

I would like suggestions on how to go about reducing the amount of
data being transfered. Tried UpdatePanel, and that does not work at
all.

Thank you.

Hi

Since you have already used updatepanel and it is of no use...
i thing you can go for all client side actions...
in this case you got to write raw ajax methods to update your
stuff...
and rather than use a grid you can use normal html table...
the problem is with client side development you have huge javascript
to manage...

Best of luck
