Hi all,

I may be a beginner for ASP.NET MVC developer, but I created the new MVC4 RC project, and it allow to develop the mobile application with jQuery mobile layout as default. Are there any ASP.NET MVC examples for Kendo UI Mobile? For MVC examples, I see only Kendo UI web and dataviz on Q2 Beta demo. 

Are there any ways or examples to develop ASP.NET MVC mobile application using Kendo UI Mobile? Moreover, if there are the way to develop ASP.NET MVC mobile application, how to build the MVC project for the mobile device?

Thank you :))

Hi,

MVC controls helpers generated html, then on the end with ScriptRegistrar applied javascript to those elements. Now you are rendering script just after the element, so if I have 100 controls on page, 100 script "oneliners" would appear in generated html(both examples below).

Question is why change helpers behaviour(except initializanig control properties through jquery)? 

old way:




new way

I am trying to dynamically add a tab using the append method, but I cant get any of the imageHtmlAttributes to get inserted into the html.
Here is my code:


However the onclick is never added.

Please disregard this thread as I have created another one:
http://www.kendoui.com/forums/mvc/grid/grid-with-nested-objects-datasource.aspx 

We are currently having problems achieving the same functionality we have in MVC Extensions.

1. In MVC Extensions we have a modified combobox helper below which allows us to set the initial value & text in a 'load on demand' combobox.  As part of the helper we also modify the name to change "-input" to "_input" so both the posted value and text can be bound to properties in our view model (ie int abc and string abc_input).  

Can you advise how to best achieve this using Kendo MVC combobox as we have been unable to convert the logic below.

            return helper.Telerik().ComboBox()
                         .Name(name)
                         .InputHtmlAttributes(new
                         {
                             id = name + "_input",
                             name = name + "_input",
                             value = text
                         })
                         .Value(value != null ? value.ToString() : string.Empty);

2. Perhaps related to my issue above but when I select an item from a kendo combobox and post the the results the combobox selection is not maintained when the view is redrawn... in fact the firebug shows only the combobox selected data value is posted

    @using (Ajax.BeginForm("Index", "Home", new AjaxOptions { HttpMethod = "POST" }))
    {
        @(Html.Kendo().ComboBox()
                .Name("TestComboID")
                .AutoBind(false)
                .DataTextField("Text")
                .DataValueField("ID")
                .Filter("contains")
                .DataSource(source =>
                {
                    source.Read(read =>
                    {
                        read. Action("GetProducts", "Home")
                    })
                    .ServerFiltering(true);
                })
        )
   
3. Server Filter

Currently to implement combobox server filtering in MVC extension is quick and easy.  The way it has been implemented in Kendo MVC examples requiring .Data to be manually set in the DataSource is clumsy and inefficient given the amount of code required.. If you only have a few combobox's it wouldn't be an issue but we have over 100... Is there any way to improve this so the value is automatically passed when server filtering is on?

Thanks in advance,
Danny

Hi,

The bottom border of my window is not showing in IE8 even though there is plenty of space.  Is this a known issue?  I am using the default theme.

Thank you,

I currently use the Telerik ASP.Net MVC 3 extensions.

What is the difference between Kendo UI Complete for ASP.NET MVC and Kendo UI Web?

Do they both support Entity Framework, Linq to Entities, and Data Annotations for the Models?

In addition, does Kendo UI Mobile support Entity Framework?

Basically, can you bind the UI Widgets to entities? All I see in th examples is datasource binding to manual entries or some service that serves up data. What about data coming back from a SQL Server database using LINQ and binding it to the widgets?

Also, in return, to update the database from the widgets....

Which product (Kendo UI Complete for ASP.NET MVC and Kendo UI Web) is best to use in what kind of scenario?

If so to any of the above questions, where can I find examples? 

Hi,
We just realized that the grid component does some kind of reordering even when no sort order is defined. It sorts the same way everytime, but I cannot see any real pattern to what it sorts on.

We do the sorting server-side and breaking inside the razor view and expanding the list sent to the grid (iqueryable with direct connection to Entity Framework) shows the expected sort order. However, when the grid component has processed it the sort order has changed.

Hopefully this can be fixed soon!

Hi there,

I noticed an issue with the checkbox column for the batch-edit grid.  On the sample project that comes with the Kendo UI MVC Beta, if you navigate to the Batch Editing sample, you can see that the Discontinued column can't be changed from True to False (It works fine when changing from False to True).  In other words, after unchecking the checkbox and getting out of the the edit cell, it still shows up as "True" and has no dirty flag indicator.  Is this a known issue?  Please let me know if I'm missing anything.

Thanks,

Ben

When using EditorFor any data annotations applied to the ViewModel such as Required, StringLength, etc are not added to the wrapped TextArea as data attributes, therefore no client validation is applied.
