How do you get the Grid's model from the row element

[Ramesh]

I have extended the default grid and am overriding the removeRow event. The handler get a reference to the "row" which is the rendered tr (HTML)

I can get the model that is bound to that row via

var model = this._modelForContainer(row)

However, how do I get access to the model instance that is bound to the grid? I have a specific method on the model that needs to be invoked from the removeRow event handler.

Hi Ramesh,

Please note that extending the Kendo UI widgets falls outside the scope of our support service as it covers the build-in functionality of the controls only.
Also the "_modelForContainer" method returns the instance that is in the dataSource (also bind to the grid) using the "getByUid" method which you can use to achieve the desired behavior.
