Hi,

We are planning to start a new project in ASP.Net MVC and are planning to use telerik controls for ASP.Net MVC. We were thinking about using some client side MV* framework for better organization of client side code. Can you please guide on:

1. Which client side framework/library is more compatible with telerik's ASP.Net MVC controls e.g. Knockout JS or Angular JS or ?
2. Telerik recommends using such frameworks with already existing client side API of controls or not?

Any recommendations?

Thanks

grid.getOptions() is not defined

Hi,

I'm trying to implement the persist state methods set/getOptions() for the new release. But when calling those methods I am getting the undefined error message. I've installed the new release and updated my kendo.all.min.js file within my scripts.

Anything that I am missing out?

Thanks!

Kendo ASPNET MVC5 controls Not Rendering properly on Azure site

We have a application built using Kendo ASPNET MVC5 and it works
correctly (i.e. UI rendering is perfect) on local host. The kendo
controls are shown "Correctly" on local host and no issues are seen
locally.

However when the same codebase is published on Azure website then kendo controls do NOT render correctly.
Sample layout and index page of schedular (calendar) is given.

The URL for accessing the Azure hosted site is: http://shrirangtest3.azurewebsites.net/
login: peter
pwd: erp

Please let us know what are we missing when it is deployed on azure.

(Note: The rendering of UI happens perfectly on Azure site when MVC4 is used but NOT with MVC5)

OutputCache not working with Remote Data Binding

Hi, I'm having issues getting OutputCache to work with the remoteDatasource dropdown demo. Whenever I run through Fiddler, I get this message "HTTP/1.1 Vary Header is present: *
*: The server MUST be contacted to verify the freshness of this resource."

I can put the outputcache on actions not called through the kendo datasource and they are cached as exptected. Any ideas?

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/dropdownlist/remotedatasource

@(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(m => m.PasswordExpireOptionSelectedID)
.DataTextField("Text")
.DataValueField("Value")
.DataSource(source =>
{
source.Read(read =>
{
read.Action(ListController.ActionGetPasswordExpireOptions, ListController.ControllerName);
});
})
)

// Action snippet
private const int CacheDurationDefault = 86400;

public JsonResult GetPasswordExpireOptions()
{
// some code here....
return Json(returnValue, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

Paging dropdown opens in improper position

Sometimes it is consistently observed with Telerik grid that the paging dropdown on click opens at the top of grid or somewhere outside the immediate accessibility of the dropdown - it should ideally open it like a dropdown, just beneath the icon
Attaching the screenshot taken at the behavior.
Please suggest the fix !!!

Set focus on Tab index

Is there a way to set cursor focus on any tab item ?

SelectedIndex() is to select but I need to make sure when user hits <tab> key after TabStrip load, the next tabItem is ready to be selected.

Is there a method similar to SelectedIndex() or needs to be custome script code to set focus on ?

Html.Telerik().TabStrip()
.Name("TabStripDynamicSearchCriteria")
.Items(tabstrip =>
{
....
}
.SelectedIndex(selectedIndex).Render();

Custom colors for Alternate rows in grid

I am using Razor to define the Telerik grid.
By default one of the color is 'transparent' and the other can be defined as I understand. Is there a way to define two custom colors like - instead of transparent - it is white and the other color gray ?

Thanks in advance

TabIndex for paging control

Shift+Tab fails to work in paging control : here is the scenario
- tab on to the paging dropdown icon
- hit <space>
Expected Result : dropdown opens
Actual Result : dropdown opens
- hit <Shift+tab >
Expected Result : tab focus to go on dropdown icon
Actual Result : focus goes out of grid and goes to next item outside grid

Showing example attached - in the second screen, the focus goes to a link "Trademarks" in the bottom

Also, the same happens with "filter icon" - but this can be won by an argument to close the dropdown by hitting <Esc> so that the focus gets back to filter icon BUT in the paging control case, the <esc> doesn't work to close the paging dropdown !!!!

Any fix or workaround ?
