You can map a client-side event of the Spread component to a custom JavaScript function by using any of three procedures. The procedures, listed here, show how, for example, to map an event, such as onDataChanged to a custom function "Test()".

• Add an attribute to the component in your server-side code:

  JavaScript	Copy Code
  FpSpread1.Attributes.Add("onDataChanged", "Test")

• Or map the event to a function in a client-side event, such as the window.onload() function:

  JavaScript	Copy Code
  window.onload = function () { var spread1 = document.getElementById("<%=FpSpread1.ClientID %>"); if (document.all) { // IE if (spread1.addEventListener) { // IE9 spread1.addEventListener("DataChanged", Test, false); } else { // Other versions of IE and IE9 quirks mode (no doctype set) spread1.onDataChanged = Test; } } else { // Firefox spread1.addEventListener("DataChanged", Test, false); } }

• Or map the event in the section of the HTML on the page where the Spread object is located:

  JavaScript	Copy Code
  <FarPoint:FpSpread onDataChanged="Test()" id="FpSpread1" style="Z-INDEX: 101; LEFT: 8px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 8px" runat="server" BorderWidth="1px" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderColor="Black" Height="272px" Width="424px" DesignString='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Spread />' ActiveSheetViewIndex="0">

Each of these would result in this JavaScript function being called:

JavaScript	Copy Code
function Test() { alert("The data has changed"); }
