Grid won't render

I'm new to Kendo UI and MVC and am working on an ASP.Net MVC3 project using Razor. I've based my grid on a demo at http://docs.kendoui.com/documentation/getting-started/using-kendo-with/aspnet-mvc/helpers/grid/ajax-binding. I could easily do this as a traditional ASP.Net project in which I'm expert but want to master this new pattern.

My problem is that the grid won't render. The JSON content coming back appears valid to me. I've got a similar grid in DataTables where I've got the grid to at least render the first level but this one is proving to be stubborn. I'd prefer to use KendoUI if possible.

I've determined the the Ajax call is working and that JSON content is being returned to the browser. I'm not sure what might be wrong. I'm binding to a List collection of Batch objects. A Batch object has properties to be displayed in the first level of the grid. The Batch object also has a property that returns a List collection of Transaction objects which will be displayed on demand in the nested grid which I haven't gotten to yet.

Can anyone point me to where I've gone wrong? I've no clue what to do next and can't find any articles that look like a solution.

Here's the code I have so far:

// the controller

// called by Index2: returns a list of BatchHeader objects directly from the ROAMHostSvc

public ActionResult FetchBatchList2()

{

DateTime aDate = new DateTime(0001, 1, 1);

ROAMHostSvc.Notification messages1 = null;

ROAMHostSvc.ROAMHostSvcClient hostSvc = null;

KUI_CS_Test1.ROAMHostSvc.BatchHeader[] batchArr;

//List<KUI_CS_Test1.ROAMHostSvc.BatchHeader> batchCollection = new List<BatchHeader>();

try

{

hostSvc = new ROAMHostSvc.ROAMHostSvcClient();

batchArr = hostSvc.GetBatchCollection(ref messages1, false, aDate, aDate, false, aDate, aDate);

// assign the objects in the array to the List collection

//for (int i = 0; i <= batchArr.Length - 1; i++)

//{

// batchCollection.Add(batchArr[i]);

//}

//return View(batchCollection);

//return PartialView(batchCollection);

//return PartialView(Json(batchCollection, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet));

return Json(batchArr, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

return null;

}

finally

{

Close_WCF_Service(ref hostSvc);

}

private void Close_WCF_Service(ref ROAMHostSvc.ROAMHostSvcClient hostSvc)

{

try

{

if ((hostSvc != null))

{

if (hostSvc.State == System.ServiceModel.CommunicationState.Opened)

{

hostSvc.Close();

hostSvc = null;

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

throw;

}

//the view

@model KUI_CS_Test1.ROAMHostSvc.BatchHeader[]

@{

ViewBag.Title = "Index1";

}

<h2>Index1</h2>

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)

.Name("batchGrid")

.Columns(columns =>

{

columns.Bound(b => b.BatchID);

columns.Bound(b => b.Transmitted_DateTime);

columns.Bound(b => b.Completed_DateTime);

columns.Bound(b => b.Created_DTTM);

columns.Bound(b => b.Created_EmpID);

}

)

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()

.Read(read => read.Action("FetchBatchList2", "Home"))

)

ComboBox retains value but not text on return to page

I created a couple of ComboBoxes and notice a strange thing if I do the following:

1. Select an item.
2. Navigate away from the page.
3. Use the browser's Back button to return to the page.

Upon returning, the ComboBox is blank (or the placeholder appears if I configured that). However, when I open the ComboBox, the item I had originally selected is highlighted. Thus, it appears that the value was retained though the text was not.

Is there any way to make sure the text retains its value on returning to the page?

(Note: I tried the same thing with a normal HTML select drop-down list, and the selected item remains selected upon return as expected.)

Thanks,

Ken

Dropdownlist in text column.

Hello all.
I'm wondering if someone can help me.
I have a MVC Kendo grid, that has AJAX binding. Within the grid, I have some TEXT coulmns. So on edit, it is a plain editbox.
But for some rows, I want the template to be a dropdown or a combobox.
I need this, because I want the user to select a restriced choise list.

I have varios reasonsfor this. But overall what I need is have a dropdown/combox on edit template on a TEXT based column of a data grid.

My current code looks like this:

--cshtml---

@(Html.Kendo()

.Grid<Shell.UI.UGOBooks.Models.GetAcreageData_Result>()

.Name("AcreageGrid")

.HtmlAttributes(new { style="height: 650px" })

.Columns(columns =>

{

columns.Bound(a => a.DataFieldText);

columns.Bound(a => a.UOMText)

.HeaderHtmlAttributes(new { style="text-align:center" })

.HtmlAttributes(new { style="text-align:center" })

.Width(100);

columns.Bound(a => a.DataFieldValue)

.HeaderHtmlAttributes(new { style="text-align:right" })

.HtmlAttributes(new { title="#= TooltipText#", style="text-align:right" })

.Width(100);

columns.Bound(a => a.DataFieldTextValue)

.HtmlAttributes(new { title="#= TooltipText#" })

.Width(200);

columns.Bound(a => a.Comments);

})

.ToolBar(toolbar =>

{

toolbar.Save();

})

.Events(e =>

{

e.Edit("onAcreageEdit");

e.DataBound("onGridDataBound");

e.SaveChanges("acreageSaveChanges");

})

.Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.InCell))

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()

.Batch(true)

.PageSize(20)

.ServerOperation(false)

.Model(model =>

{

model.Id(a => a.AcreageDataId);

})

.Read(read => read.Action("AcreageRead", "Databooks").Data("gridReadParams"))

.Update(update => update.Action("AcreageUpdate", "Databooks")))

.Pageable()

)

ASP.NET MVC Wrapper Limitations

Are there limitations to the ASP.NET MVC Wrappers in contrast with just using pure jQuery/Javascript? Reason I ask is because the sample page shows pop up binding and it has examples for HTML, but none for ASP.NET MVC wrapper.

Wrong file name of swedish culture js file?

Hi,
The js culture file is named: kendo.culture.se-SE.min.js and also the tags inside it.
But is that really correct, shouldn't it be named: kendo.culture.sv-SE.min.js?

Regards,

Great Example of why Kendo UI Demos sux

http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/editing-inline.html

Guess what guys your demo shows exactly what I want to do..... I want to have an editable check box that shows yes or no just like the above demo. Guess what the parts that make the demo that I need to see are not a public part of the demo. Another great job guys.Not that it matters but our trial ends tomorrow and I just don't think we will buy it.

If I wanted to:

A. Search for 5 hours looking for other people who have already suffered through finding the answer
B. Rebuild my own stuff so that it works the way I want

I surely wouldn't buy Kendo UI

Does Kendo UI complete for ASP.NET MVC incldue Mobile?

Hi,

I am new to Kendo and a little confused. I want to use my existing ASP.NET MVC skills to do Mobile App development. Kendo UI Complete seems like the best option for me.

I read in your help docs/blogs that Kendo UI Complete includes Kendo Mobile (which seems to be the collection of mobile widgets).

However, I read a forum post suggesting that there are no wrappers for Mobile - what does this mean? Can someone explain the difference please..

Thanks
