I hate bringing this up, because DST can be such a mind #$%$. But here we go: 

I have declared a Kendo datetimepicker like so:

@(Html.Kendo().DateTimePicker()
.Name("StartDatePicker")
.Format("yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm zzz")
.TimeFormat("HH:mm")
)​

I'll be using MST as my example timezone, ie. -6:00 or -7:00. On November 1st @ 2:00 AM time goes backwards 1 hour. So basically the time one second after 1:59:59 AM (-06:00) becomes 1:00:00 AM (-07:00)

The KendoDateTimePicker seems to be smart enough to recognize the timezone change. For example, selecting November 1st 00:30 (pre-time change) will show a timezone of (-06:00), and selecting November 1st 02:00 (post time change) will show a timezone of (-07:00)

The tricky part with the November time change is that there are two occurrences of 01:00:00 - 01:59:59 during that day. The first occurrence has a timezone of -06:00 and the second has a timezone one less, of -07:00. So the question is, how do I select one occurrence or the other, without having to manually input the timezone?

The expectation is that the clients current timezone is used. So if the current local time is before the time change (-06:00), then if I select November 1st 01:30 I expect the timezone to be (-06:00). If the current local time is after the time change (-07:00), then if I select November 1st 01:30 I expect the timezone to be (-07:00).

 At the moment the KendoDateTimePicker doesn't match those expectations, and instead defaults to the pre-time change timezone of (-06:00) regardless of what the timezone of the web server or the client is. It is therefore impossible to select time between 01:00:00 - 01:59:59 (-07:00).

Is this a bug or is there someway of making the datetimepicker aware of the client's current timezone?

I have a search form which will get a list of records.
I would like to bind the search results on pressing submit after performing some initial ​checks on the entered data. How do i bind my action result to the Kendo Grid ?
 My JS File is 
function validateDataForSearch() {
        var empNo = $("#empNo").val();
        var empName = $("#empName").val();
        var empMgr = $("#empMgr").val();
        var clientName = $("#ClientName").val();

        var noValues = empNo.length + empName.length + empMgr.length + clientName.length;

        if (noValues <= 0) {
            alert("Please enter at least one value to be able to search.");
        }
        else {
            if (empNo.length <= 0)
                empNo = 0;
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: 'Home/Search',
                data: { empNo: empNo, empName: empName, empMgr: empMgr, clientName: clientName },
                success: function (response) {                
                        $("#pmtSearchResult").getKendoGrid().dataSource.data(response);
                        }
            });
        }​;

  function get​EmpLink(project) {
        var action = '@Url.Action("Index","PMP", new { ​emp= '+ ​emp +')';
        var ​empLink = kendo.format("<a href='{0}'>{2}</a>", action, ​emp.empNo);
        return empLink;
    }

 var validator = $("#searchForm").kendoValidator().data("kendoValidator");

    $("#btnSearch").click(function (e) {        
        if (!validator.validate()) {
            e.preventDefault();
        }
        else
            validateDataForSearch();
    });

My CSHTML is as follows

@model IEnumerable<PMT.Models.EmpData> 
<div id="kendoGrid">
    @(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)
    .Name("SearchResult")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(p => p.empNo).ClientTemplate("#= getEmpLink(data) #");
        columns.Bound(p => p.empName);
        columns.Bound(p => p.empMgr);
        columns.Bound(p => p.ClientName);

        columns.Bound(p => p.empSal).hidden(true);

    })
    .Pageable()
    .Sortable()
    .Scrollable(scr => scr.Height(430))
    .Filterable()
    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
        .Ajax()
        .PageSize(20)
        .ServerOperation(false)
     )
    )​

I cant seem to render the grid to hide the empSal column or to show  the emloyeeid column as a hyperlink column

 Please find the below code as i want to set default value of dropdown instead of optionlable from  JSON data which is returned from controller .

Please find the below code

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
              .Name("DropDownList1")
                                       
              .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "width:300px" })
              .OptionLabel("Select ...")
              .DataTextField("District_Id")
              .DataValueField("Location_ID")
            
             
                      .DataSource(source =>
           {
               source.Read(read =>
                  {
                      read.Action("GetOrders", "IDTDashboard");
                  })
                  .ServerFiltering(true);
           })
           .AutoBind(false)

public ActionResult GetOrders()
       {
           List<usp_IDQ_GetLicenseDistrictsVO> objresult1 = new List<usp_IDQ_GetLicenseDistrictsVO>();
           objresult1 = objConnection.usp_IDQ_GetLicenseDistricts(User.Identity.Name, true).ToList();
           return Json(objresult1, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); ;
       }

Hi,

We have a combobox and a button inside a form (all HTML helper) and when we submit (its just a search form) two querystring items are appended to the forms destination - one with the name of the "Combobox" giving the value and one with "ComboBox_input" giving the text.

We're using a combobox so we can have the Text and the Value separate.

How can we stop both the Text AND Value being added as a querystring value?

I know we can do an on change event and window.location, but we've a requirement for an actual button to click and I thought this would work ...

Thanks,

Daniel

I have the following grid

 I would like to know if there is a way to change the size of the grid according to the number of results i have when i use filter

for Example if i filter first column and get 1 result grid would be small, and if i had 10 results i would be larger.

Hello,

Could you please let me know how one can control the placement of the slider tooltip? By default it is to bottom and the ask is to have it placed above.

Thanks!

Hello, I'm currently evaluating the MVC controls. I've created a custom control panel where the user can filter  or create new items on the table.  Currently the filter is working perfectly using javascript. The create button is not.  I added the class k-grid-add but no luck. I look at the link the grid creates when using the standard create button in the toolbar and it looks something like this: tblAgents_Read?grid-mode=insert  . I've tried adding this link to my custom link but it will return all data in a json file.  Any help?

Hi,

we need to bind datatables to a grid. For that we found the following example code:

http://www.telerik.com/support/code-library/binding-to-datatable-0191a594e359

This is working fine with the following exception:

We need a custom popup editor. But this requires a model we do not have because the grid is <dynamic>. What can we do?

 Best regards,

Thomas

Hi,

I have a frustrating issue with fields in my model not being populated in the Update action callback in my controller.  The model:

The User property is being correctly populated.  Integer fields January through December are not.

The callback:

And finally, the code for the popup template:

When given a populated model, the values are displayed correctly in each field, it is only when Update is clicked, any updated values in the fields are not populated into the model object in the callback.

Any thoughts on what the issue might be?  I've used similar code in other places, this is the first time though that any fields have been an int type, so am wondering if I'm missing something somewhere...

Also, the editor template for Integer is as follows:

Thanks,

Craig.
