checkboxes in datagrid

I have a datagrid with two columns. when an item is selected
on this datagrid, another datagrid gets populated based on the
selected item. But as things stand, the second dgrid is inside a
repeater. This dgrid has a custom checkbox as an itemrenderer. When
a checkbox is checked a chart is to be populated based on this
data.

The problem now is: The view gets updated only after an extra
click event after checking a checkbox.

Is there any way to update the view as soon as the checkbox
is checked ?

Thanks

is this topic so lame that nobody is willing to comment on
it?? or am i doing it all wrong? if so plz point out.|||
I wanted to take a look at this, but your sample code would
best include everything necessary to reproduce, and at least some
things are left to the imagination, and I don’t have the time to
figure it out. examples are servicelist and

taskSelected, but there is other missing info.

This may not solve it, but a co-worker discovered with a
ComboBox in an DataGrid column the other day that he couldn’t just
mark the DataGridColumn holding the ComboBox as editable=”true”. He
found he had to mark the parent DataGrid as editable=”true”, then
mark all the OTHER DataGridColumn elements (displaying text which
should not be edited) as editable=”false”.

Good luck…
