[Solved] Bug. Cyrillic strings is not url encoded in selectUrl (IE 8.0-9.0)

[Alexey Kobin]

Cyrillic strings are not url encoded in selectUrl, if these strings were provided in route values of the  Ajax().Select method.

Hello Alexey Kobin,

 Are those strings encoded if you pass them to Html.ActionLInk? I think this is the behavior of the ASP.NET routing - it does not encode strings by default.

Yes, these strings url encoded if I pass them to Html.ActionLink.
I think it's bug on your side.

Hello Alexey Kobin,

Indeed cyrillic text is encoded by Html.ActionLink. However my tests showed that the grid is also encoding them. Find attached my test project.

Yes, grid encoded them in your test. But I have found the grid does not encode route values if the grid page is rendered for ajax request. See my example.

Hi Alexey Kobin,

 Thank you for providing a sample project. It clearly shows that there is a problem. I updated your Telerik points.

 I think I fixed that issue. Find attached the updated project. You can use the dll an JavaScript files from it. The build I am sending also fixes another problem. You are no longer required to manually include the JavaScript files for the grid if you load it with ajax.

Hello,

I'd like to ask if this bug has been fixed in the new version of MVC Telerik Components "Telerik_Extensions_for_ASPNET_MVC_2012_1_214".
I have a similar issue in a project I am working on: I have defined a custom command button in a grid column that makes an ajax request to a controller's method. The command is defined with some dataroutevalues that are taken from other fields of the same row. The dataroutevalues contain non-english characters and this seems to cause a problem, since when the grid loads I get an error that it contains illegal characters...

This is the part of the grid definition that generated the problem

c.Command(commands =>
                    {
                          commands.Custom("showDetails")
                          .Ajax(true)
                          .Text("Λεπτομέρειες")
                          .Action("ShowDetails", "Grid")
                          .DataRouteValues(route =>
                         {
                             route.Add(o => o.ΔΙΕΥΘΥΝΣΗ).RouteKey("address");
                             route.Add(o => o.ΠΟΛΗ).RouteKey("city");
                             route.Add(o => o.ΤΑΧ_ΚΩΔ).RouteKey("postal_code");
                         });
                         
                    });
