Client Side Template Without WebService Binding

[TGMSoft Developer]

I need to have a client side template on my application without using webservice binding.

When I try to use client side template with other types of databing like datatable or arraylist the client side template does not
maintain its layout.

The reason I need this is because I need client side template with load on demand.

For example: 
* The bellow code adds an item but doens't preseve the client template
Dim itemData As New RadListBoxItem()
itemData.Text ="Text"
itemData.Attributes.Add("Attr1", "Attr1")
itemData.Attributes.Add("Attr2", "Attr2")
itemData.Attributes.Add("Attr3", "Attr3")
radListBox.Items.Add(itemData)

* The code below works when its set as webservice biding
Dim result As New List(Of RadListBoxItemData)()
Dim itemData As New RadListBoxItemData()
itemData.Text = "Text"
itemData.Attributes.Add("Attr1", "Attr1")
itemData.Attributes.Add("Attr2", "Attr2")
itemData.Attributes.Add("Attr3", "Attr3")
result.Add(itemData)

Return result.ToArray()

Hello,

In order to properly bind the added items at server-side, when client templates are used, you should call the bindTemplate() for each item. I have prepared a sample example, demonstrating such implementation, which you can find attached.This and more information on the matter, could be found in the Client Templates documentation article :

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/listbox-client-templates.html

However, if you need to bind the controls at server-side, we recommend the usage of the  ItemTemplates, as demonstrated in the documentation article below:
