Web: ASP.NET MVC

As you know this week Microsoft released ASP.NET MVC Beta and I've updated my last grid example to the latest ASP.NET MVC version. I needed to change only two things: - Ajax.Form changed to Ajax.BeginForm/Ajax.EndForm - Html.SubmitButton changed to plain <input type="submit" /> and everything worked instantly!

I've made yet another ASP.NET MVC example with RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX however instead of Html.Form and Html.ActionLink I have used Ajax.Form and Ajax.ActionLink: As a result now you have an ajax enabled grid with paging, sorting, select, edit, update, delete and insert: [Download]...

To continue with my previous blog post about RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX in Microsoft ASP.NET MVC, I've made another example how to use RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX as pure client-side components in this environment. The biggest challenge here is the ScriptManager and scripts registration in general. By default the creation of client-side components is so tightly coupled with the ajax functionality (PageRequestManager) that the only way to enable this is to inherit from ScriptManager (or RadScriptManager) and build everything manually: protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) {      foreach (RegisteredScript script in GetRegisteredClientScriptBlocks())      {          if (Page.Items[script.Key] == null)          {              Page.Items[script.Key] =...

I've made small example how to use RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX in Microsoft ASP.NET MVC:   The key here is to inherit from RadGrid and call explicitly desired grid commands. Let's say you want to edit particular record: 1) Create a template column and add this to the ItemTemplate: <%# Html.ActionLink("Edit", "RadGridCommand", new { ControlID = MyGrid1.ID, CommandName = "Edit", CommandArgument = Container.ItemIndexHierarchical }) %>   2) Now handle this in your controller: public ActionResult RadGridCommand(string ControlID, string CommandName, string CommandArgument) {     ViewData["ControlID"] = ControlID;     ViewData["CommandName"]= CommandName;     ViewData["CommandArgument"] = CommandArgument;     return View("Index"); }   3) Override OnPreRender in inherited class and call explicitly the grid...

I just came upon this awesome blog post by Andreas who has managed to create an action for rendering an image. I'm blogging here to give more of you guys a heads up on his post. If you are into the whole MVC thing and want to use RadChart you should definitely check this out....
