Grid in forms?

[Julien]

Hi,

First, let me just say that I'm not satisfied by this change asp.net Mvc->kendo ui MVC. It's now a mess to find any information about products I've to maintain, and it's a shame to have to navigate between differents forums to post something(And I'm talking about the main website where we have to read the footer to find the correct page fastly). And there is no way to display by default asp.net Mvc code instead of the javascript synthax... And there is missing code for c#(e.g. no c# example for http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/events.html , no controller example for http://demos.kendoui.com/web/grid/editing-inline.html 
) If your goal was to make my work less productive, you won. Hopes it will not continues this way.

I've an Asp.Net MVC website. I've to create a form on which I can edit an object with a small list of elements. 

My model can be simplified like this:

MyModel

public class MyModel{

   public String Name{get;set;}

   public String Description{get;set;}

   public List<Step> Steps{get;set;}

}

 

public class Step{

  public int Id  {get;set;}

  public String Name {get;set;}

  public String Description{get;set;}

}

I would like to be able to add/remove/edit "Steps", and that when I submit my form containaing MyModel fields, I also receive in the POST data the Steps data.

Is it possible with the telerik Grid? I saw demos, but I didn't make them work for my case, only found ajax instant updating or batch editing

Thank you for your help.

Hi Julien,

Thank you for the feedback our Dev team will be informed about the missing codes. 

Regarding your issue we recently created a code-library project which shows how you can submit a form which contains a grid. However there are some restrictions using this approach. You can find the code-library here.

I hope this helps.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

Thank you for the response, I think it will match my needs. The worse problem is the pagination restriction. Isn't there a way to avoid this? Or a workaround?

Hello Julien,

We are not aware of a work-around to this issue. If we find something we will update the code-library accordingly.

Hi

I tried the demonstration project mentioned in the above article, but it does not work in IE9.
If you click on the Save button the Save action isn't fired. Chrome and Firefox work fine.
