Hello,

I am a beginner with kendo UI and have a problem with the following input box:

<input data-role="datepicker" data-format="dd.MM.yyyy" data-bind="enabled: isEnabled, value: DateToSave" />

The date is picked correctly (displayed on the page), but after saving to the server the value in the server table is one day off. The displayed value on the page (after saving) is also one day off from the picked value.

These are the project infos:

- Telerik ASP.NET MVC 4 (v2013.3.1119)

- culture: "de-AT"

editorTemplate and DateTimeModelBinder

@model DateTime?

<div class="span-datepricker">

<input name="datepicker" />

</div>

<script>

$(document).ready(function () {

// create DatePicker from input HTML element

$("input[name='datepicker']").kendoDatePicker();

});

</script>

using System;

using System.Globalization;

using System.Web.Mvc;

namespace Presentation.Host.App_Start

{

public class DateTimeModelBinder : IModelBinder

{

private const string DateTimePattern = "ddd MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss 'GMT'zzz";

public object BindModel(ControllerContext controllerContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext)

{

string value = bindingContext.ValueProvider.GetValue(bindingContext.ModelName).AttemptedValue;

if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value))

{

int timeZoneInfoIndex = value.IndexOf(" (", StringComparison.Ordinal);

if (timeZoneInfoIndex > 0)

{

value = value.Substring(0, timeZoneInfoIndex);

return DateTime.ParseExact(value, DateTimePattern, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).AddDays(1);

}

return DateTime.Parse(value);

}

return null;

}

ViewModel:

.....

public DateTime? DateToSave { get; set; }

...

If you could give me some hints where to start looking I'd be thankful.

Best regards.

Manu
