Access view.params in view

[Zachary]

I am struggling with access to the view.params in the view.

My code is simple - and i just want to dynamically populate a data- element on a button that resides in the header with view.params. I want to do this without using the template or the data-show function as both of these don't seem to work.. Template doesn't seem to work with the header, and my attempt to do this in the js function called at data-show the button doesnt work properly.. PLEASED HELP!

<!-- eventDetail view -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->
<div data-role="view" id="view-eventDetail" data-show="getEventDetailData" data-title="eventDetail">
<header data-role="header">
<div data-role="navbar">
<span data-role="view-title"></span>
<a data-align="left" data-role="button" class="nav-button" href="#view-myEvents">Back</a>
                    <a data-align="right" data-role="button" class="nav-button" data-click="showEventUpdate" data-event_id="#=event_id#" data-user_id="view.params.user_id">Edit</a>
</div>
</header>

<div id="eventDetail"></div>
</div>

<script id="eventDetail-template" type="text/x-kendo-template">
         <div id="eventData">
<p>
Type: ${type}
</p>
<p>

Loc: ${loc}
</p>
<p>

Date/Time: ${stamp}
</p>
<p>
Share this ${share}

</p>



</div>

</script>

Hi,

Attribute binding doesn't work for Kendo buttons. From the example you've sent, it seems you're trying to store information in the html elements.

I would recommend another approach to use view models. You may bind each view to a concrete view model.

Thus you can use different values in the view model and then send some of them to the next view. I wrote a demo for you, which demonstrates Kendo binding and parameter transfers among the views.
