[Solved] CurrencyTextBox wrong display value

[Andrea Tasca]

I'm using the CurrencyTextBox inside a EditorTemplate:

Decimal.ascx:
<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<decimal?>" %>
<%= Html.Telerik().CurrencyTextBox()
        .Name(ViewData.TemplateInfo.GetFullHtmlFieldName(string.Empty))
        .InputHtmlAttributes(new { style = "width:100%" })
        .Value(Model)
        .CurrencySymbol(" ")
%>

the real value is 1.0 but the display value is 10.00. The problem is, when I save, the real value become 10.0 and the display value 100.00 and so on..
 
I believe there is a problem with the culture, I'm using it-IT, and the decimal numbers become part of the real number.

how can I fix it?

Hello Andrea,

 
Could you please verify that the globalization is turned on? Check this help topic for more information.

If the problem still persists I will ask you to send a simple test project which shows the depicted issue.

Kind regards,

with the latest build the problem seems fixed, but now the javascript validator is blocking the value because there are a wrong decimal separator..

Hello Andrea,

 
This is expected behavior. The problem is caused by the inability of the jquery.validate.js to validate globalized numbers. Hence in order to avoid this erroneous behavior you will need to add custom "range" validate method, like so:

@( Html.Telerik().ScriptRegistrar().jQuery(false).Globalization(true)
       .DefaultGroup(group => group.Add("jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js").Add("jquery.validate.js").Add("jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js"))
       .OnDocumentReady(
            @<text>
                $.validator.addMethod("range", function( value, element, param ) {
                    var parsedValue = parseFloat(value.replace($.telerik.cultureInfo.numericdecimalseparator, '.'));

                    return this.optional(element) || ( parsedValue >= param[0] && parsedValue <= param[1] );
                })
            </text>
        )
)
