[Solved] Grid ClientTemplate Workaround Problem

[Nate]

Can anybody tell me what i did wrong in this ClientTemplate workaround recommendation i used for Ajax Binding? It is throwing the

NotSupportedException.

<% Html.Telerik().Grid(Model.URoleViewModel.Group)
                       .Name("UnAssignedRoleGrid")
                       .DataBinding(dataBinding => dataBinding.Ajax().Select("SelectedUser", "UserAdministration", new {userName = ViewData["userName"],roleAction = "Add"}))
                       .Columns(columns => {
                           columns.Bound(r => r.RoleName).Template(r =>
                               {
                                   %>
                                   <%=Html.ActionLink("Edit", "AddRemoveRoles", new { roleName = r.RoleName, roleAction = "Add"})%>
                                   <%
                               })
                           .ClientTemplate("<a href='" + Url.Action("AddRemoveRoles", "UserAdministration") + "/<#= RoleName #>Edit</a>").Title("Edit");
                           columns.Bound(r => r.RoleName).Width(170);
                           columns.Bound(r => r.RoleDesc).Width(170);
                       })
                           .Scrollable()
                           .Pageable()
                           .Render();
                    %>             

Thanks,

Hi Netsanet Gizaw,

This workaround is for assembly version 2010.1.416 and newer. In earlier versions you have to use ClientTemplate only. I am attaching it to this thread.

Hi Atanas,

Thanks for your quick response!
But i have problems when i use the ClientTemplate only too............Instead of the checkbox i see the value is displayed. Any idea?

<% Html.Telerik().Grid(Model.URoleViewModel.Group)
                       .Name("UnAssignedRoleGrid")
                       .DataBinding(dataBinding => dataBinding.Ajax().Select("SelectedUser", "UserAdministration", new {userName = ViewData["userName"],roleAction = "Add"}))
                       .Columns(columns => {
                           columns.Bound(r => r.RoleName).ClientTemplate("<input type='checkbox' name='checkedRecords' value='<#= RoleName #>' />").Title("Check").Width(50).HtmlAttributes(new {style = "text-align:center"});
                           columns.Bound(r => r.RoleName).Width(170);
                           columns.Bound(r => r.RoleDesc).Width(170);
                       })
                           .Scrollable()
                           .Pageable()
                           .Render();
                    %>

Hi Netsanet Gizaw,

You have specified the datasource which means the grid is initially bound server side. Client templates are not applied in this case. You have two options:

1. Upgrade to the version attached in my previous reply (recommended)
2. Do not server-bind the grid:
   Use
   <% Html.Telerik().Grid<MyType>()
   Instead of
   <% Html.Telerik().Grid(Model.URoleViewModel.Group)

Kind regards,

Thx, solved my problem!

Do you think you guys could add a note in your demo descriptions that recommends not to use the "server bind" method?  I spent a couple hours banging my head and looking at the documentation before I found this thread.
