[Solved] ActionResult is not called

[raphael]

Hi,

I saw some posts about this problem but i could not find a solution.
I downloaded the package library "Telerik Mvc package" from VS10 because I wanted to test the controls to see how they work, first thing I wanted to try was to do the ajax databinding i copied the code from the telerik help and i got a view that look like that

@model IEnumerable<MvcMovie.Models.Movie>

@(Html.Telerik().Grid<MvcMovie.Models.Movie>(Model)
        .Name("grdMovie")
        .Columns( columns =>
        {
            columns.Bound(o => o.Title).Width(100);
            columns.Bound(o => o.Genre).Width(200);
        }
        )
        .DataBinding(dataBinding => dataBinding
              //Ajax binding
              .Ajax()
                   //The action method which will return JSON
                      .Select("_AjaxBinding", "Home")
        )
        .Sortable()
)

 

and my controller

namespace MvcMovie.Controllers
{
    public partial class HomeController : Controller
    {
        private MovieDbContext db = new MovieDbContext();

        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            var _movie = db.Movies;
            return View(_movie);
        }

        //Used for the Ajax binding
        [GridAction]
        public ActionResult _AjaxBinding()
        {
            return View(new GridModel(db.Movies.ToList()));
        }
     }
}

Ok now I debug the project, when the page loads the function that i called is the Index, and even if i try to sort columns or i click the refresh button, the AjaxBinding actionresult is never called.

What am I doing wrong? thank you very much

Hi Raphael,

Is there a ScriptRegistrar at the end of the master page? All Telerik UI components need a ScriptRegistrar component in order to output their JavaScript objects and register their JavaScript files. The ScriptRegistrar component should be defined after all other UI components in the page.
 

Kind regards,

Hi Georgi,

Ok I didn't read about the script, and it is missing! just a question

should i just use the script on your sample pages

Html.Telerik().ScriptRegistrar()
                     .DefaultGroup(group => group
                     .Compress(true))
                     .OnDocumentReady(() => { %>prettyPrint();<% })
                     .Render();

 or it's better to register all script one by one? in this way?

<link href="@Url.Content("~/Content/Site.css")" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Thank you very much

Hello Raphael,

Using the ScriptRegistrar and the StyleSheetRegistrar will allow you to compress and combine the JS and CSS files, if this is required or appropriate for your application. The registrars can also generate URLs for the Telerik CDN in case you want to use it.

Finally, another useful thing about the ScriptRegistrar is that it registers automatically all script files, depending on the MVC components you have on the page.
