Drawer content from views

[Arturo]

I've searched in the documentation but haven't been able to solve this problem so far:

I want to use the drawer component as a global navigation menu. This means that the drawer items should be clickable and redirect to different views within the solution and the view should be rendered inside the content section. 

in regards to the first problem, which is that the items should be clickable i have my template setup like this:

    @(Html.Kendo().Drawer()
    .Name("drawer")
    .Template(@"
    <ul>
        <li data-role='drawer-item'><a asp-controller='Home' asp-action='Index'>First Item</a></li>
        <li data-role='drawer-separator'></li>
        <li data-role='drawer-item'>Second Item</li>
    </ul>")
    .Mode("push")    
    )

but using the asp helpers is not working. 

and regarding showing the view inside the .content, i don't know how to make that work.

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Arturo,


Thank you for the provided details.

In order to achieve the desired behavior, I would recommend using an Ajax request. The approach implementation is fully explained in the forum post below:

Give the approach above a try and let me know if further assistance is needed.
