bug with Date template for years beyond 2099?

I'm working in a grid with two fields, one for effective date and the other for retirement date with the retirement date defaulting to DateTime.MaxValue. When I edit the field (inCell mode, if that matters) on the effective date all is well and I get what I'm expecting - MM/dd/yyyy format. However, when I edit the retirement date I get the full date and time format no matter how many different places I specify the format. To test this, I changed the date manually and was able to do so up until December 31st, 2099. After that date, the field went blank. Has anybody else noticed this? Ideas for a workaround other than adding a checkbox for the max date in the template?

grid not working properly in mvc 4 vs2012

Hello,

I m using VS2012 and I m working on a MVC 4 project with the trial version of Kendo.I've managed to implement a simple grid and got some basic functionality.
My controller has these 2 methods

private static IEnumerable<MemberViewModel> GetMembers()

{

var context = new EntityContext();

return context.Members.Select(mem => new MemberViewModel

{

MemberId=mem.MemberId,

Name=mem.FirstName,

SurName = mem.LastName

});

}

public ActionResult Members_Read([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)

{

return Json(GetMembers().ToDataSourceResult(request), JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

}

And in my view i have this header

and the grid code is

(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)

.Name("Grid")

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

.Ajax()

.ServerOperation(false)

.Read(read => read.Action("Members_Read", "Home").Type(HttpVerbs.Get)))

.Pageable()

.Selectable()

.Sortable()

)

As i said grid is showing the results and pagination.But a)Selectable does not work neither in Chrome-Firefox
b)Sortable is always giving me a json result from server side.I cannot enable client sorting besides i wrote my code exactly the same
as kendo mvc examples. c)ServerOperation(false) still does not disables server side sorting.d)I ve added to web.config this line
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true" /> but again no client side sorting.

Any ideas on what is wrong with the above?
Thanx in advance

[Solved] VS2012 RTM, MVC4, Kendo Bundle not Rendering

Started a brand new VS2012 MVC4 project and pulled down the Kendo UI from NuGet.

Followed the setup instructions for Kendo from http://docs.kendoui.com/getting-started/using-kendo-with/aspnet-mvc/introduction and I'm finding the CSS or js for Kendo is never rendered/sent to my browser.

This worked in the RC version of VS2012, but once i upgraded to RTM it started to fail.
from BundleConfig.cs

//jquery

bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jquery").Include(

"~/Scripts/jquery-1.*"));

// The Kendo JavaScript bundle

bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/kendo").Include(

"~/Scripts/Kendo/2012.2.710/kendo.web.min.js", // or kendo.all.* if you want to use Kendo UI Web and Kendo UI DataViz

"~/Scripts/Kendo/2012.2.710/kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js"));

// The Kendo CSS bundle

bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/kendo").Include(

"~/Content/Kendo/2012.2.710/kendo.common.*",

"~/Content/Kendo/2012.2.710/kendo.default.*"));

From _Layout.cshtml

@Styles.Render("~/Content/kendo")

@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")

@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/kendo")

No errors are generated when my site runs, and looking at Chrome developer window nothing is generated for those @Scripts.Render lines for Kendo, the css or the js.

Thoughts, or something else I can try?

Force Grid Popup Editing to call MVC controller save method.

I am using FCKEditor in one of my grid popup edit forms. When changing the text in FCKEditor - if I don't change any other field values - by the looks of it the model is not considered "dirty" and results in the ajax call not being made to my controller to save the changes.

I need to have a method / way to force the ajax call to be made - no matter what the client side model indicates - dirty or not.

I have set the ev.model.dirty to true in the client side onsave callback - but it's still not firing the ajax call to my controller on update.

Please advise.

p.s. I am not at liberty of changing to any other editor - the client insists that FCKEditor be used.

Thank You.

Set ComboBox by the model (in Edit mode)

Hi!
I have two models in one-more relation: One "Region" to more "Punkt"
I'am using ASP.NET MVC4 and have Edit page of "Punkt" Model record. The Edit page has ComboBox populated with Regions but which I have to set to adequate Region (where Punkt belongs to).

The problem: I don't know how to set ComboBox to adequate Punkt option.

Here is PunktController:

// GET: /Punkt/Edit/5

public ActionResult Edit(int id = 0)

{

Punkt punkt = db.Punktovi.Find(id);

if (punkt == null)

{

return HttpNotFound();

}

ViewBag.MaticniRegionId = new SelectList(db.Regioni, "RegionId", "Name", punkt.MaticniRegionId);

return View(punkt);

}



//THIS IS MY METHOD USED FOR POPULATING COMBOBOX (SEE: EDIT view)

public ActionResult getRegioni()

{

    if (Request.IsAjaxRequest())

    {

        var ISPISContext = new ISPISContext();

        return Json(ISPISContext.Regioni.Select(r => new { RegionId = r.RegionId, Name = r.Name }), JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

    }

    return View();

}

Here is Edit.cshtml view:

@(Html.Kendo().ComboBox()

.Name("MaticniRegionId")

.Placeholder("Select region...")

.DataTextField("Name")

.DataValueField("RegionId")

.DataSource(source =>

{

source.Read(read =>

{

read.Action("getRegioni", "Punkt");

});

})

.Suggest(true)

)

Redirect to new page on grid Save

I have 2 Views: one called Index and one called Summary. I want to be able to input the values on Index and display back the values to the user on Summary, similar to shopping cart functionality on your favorite e-commerce sites. The code for the Index is working as expected. Here's the code I have for my Create action result that is bound to the Save button on the grid.

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create([Bind(Prefix = "models")]List<ProductModel> products)
{
if (products != null)
{
products = CalculateRoyalties(products);
}
return RedirectToAction("Summary", products);
//return View("Summary", products);
}

I've tried both RedirectToAction and return View as seen in code above. Return View will call the page but will not redirect to it. RedirectToAction doesn't seem to do anything. In both cases, my screen returns to my Index page instead of my Summary page. The products is the list that I am passing to the Summary page to display.

Any help would be appreciated.

Opening Edit Popup via script

Hello,

I have a grid that is set to PopUp when Editing

.Editable(ed=>ed.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp).TemplateName("ActionedBy"))

So I can click on the edit button next to each row in the grid to enter editing mode (which pops up) or click on the Add new button on the toolbar to also open the popup to create a new item.

If I don't want the add new button, but want to have a link somewhere in my page to add new .. How can I open up the "add new" popup?
Can this be done via Javascript?

then if I wanted to remove the edit button next to each row, and make the Name column a hyperlink , so if you click on that item, it will open the "Editing" popup mode for that item ?

Regards,

Grid
