Hi Alex, we do this by using h:commandlink, with parameter, for displaying the row data. But you need to hit the text when clicking on a row.

Hi all, I'm trying to use a datagrid as a way to quickly find and select a particular item from a large list of items. The items have several attributes I wish to display and can number in the 100's, so a drop down list isn't the right way to go... So... I have my datagrid displaying beautifully... but am now stumped on how to throw an even to catch a row selection... I know there are the rowOnClick="javascript" attributes in the datagrid, but how do i bind that to something useful? Anyone have any pointers? Ideally I'd like to get the "forceIdIndexFormula" value (or object it represents in my backing bean). Thanks in advance, Alex. -- "We should move forwards, not backwards, upwards, not sideways, and always twirling, twirling towards victory!"
