I would like to add a custom column to this grid and i tried the template method as in the code below but the code does not even compile and i get thrown an error which i have provided below as well. I want to create a custom column inside the kendo grid and then have a clickable link inside that column which call a javascript function. Is it possible?
@ModelType IEnumerable(Of Gatekeeper.SystemGroupMembers)@Code
ViewData("Title") = "DisplayMembers"End Code @(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model) _
.Name("SystemGroupMembers") _
.Columns(Sub(c) c.Bound(Function(p) p.Name) c.Bound(Function(p) p.Class) c.Bound(Function(p) p.ParentName) c.Template(@<text>blah</text>).Title("blah")End Sub) _ .Sortable() _ .DataSource(Sub(c) c.Ajax() _
.ServerOperation(False)End Sub))<div>@Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "DisplayGroups")</div>

In order to call a JavaScript function from a button or link in a Grid column I would suggest using the approach described in the article below. You should specify ClientTemplate for the column and call the JavaScript function using the template syntax with hash symbols.
Give the approach a try and let me know how it works.
