changing button parameters

[Cecil]

I am developing a new app and have a question.

I have a view that displays the employees in my company.  You can click on an employees name and 
be transfered to a second view (see text below).

On the second view, I will display the employee's name and department,followed by two buttons that 
allow you to choose what view to see next.

My question is how do I change the buttons so that I pass the employees badge number to the
next view?

<div data-role="view" data-title="Details" data-layout="main" data-init="onInit">

<div>
        <ul data-role="listview" data-source="employee" data-template="employee-template" data-style="inset"></ul>
    </div>

<div>
<a data-role="button">TRAINING COMPLETED</a>
<a data-role="button">TRAINING NEEDED</a>
</div>

</div>

<script id="employee-template" type="text/x-kendo-template">
    <div>
<label>#: LastNameFirstName #</label>
        <label>#: DepartmentName #</label>        
    </div>
</script>

<script>
    // Load the Employee
    var employee = new kendo.data.DataSource({
        type: 'everlive',
        transport: {
            typeName: 'dbo_Employee'
        },
        schema: {
            model: {
                id: Everlive.idField,
                fields: {
                    'LastNameFirstName': { defaultValue: '' },
                    'DepartmentName': { defaultValue: '' }
                }
            }
        },
        serverFiltering: true,
        filter: {
            logic: "and",
            filters: [
                { field: 'CompanyId', operator: 'eq', value: sessionStorage.CompanyId },
                { field: 'IsActive', operator: 'eq', value: 1 },
                { field: 'Id', operator: 'eq', value: 1234 }                    
            ]
        }
    });
</script>

Hello Cecil,

If I understood correctly you would like to provide information about the selected employee to the next view.
This can be done via query string parameters in the button href or through the navigate method of the application.

For your convenience I prepared a short example: http://dojo.telerik.com/IkUMU
