How to catch timeout and errors from a get in DataSource?

[John]

Hi

I've got the following code, but it's not clear to me how I respond to errors when the get fails (e.g. server down).  It's also not clear to me how I should handle a request time out condition?

Are there methods I can hook into (like the click: handler) to help catch these conditions?

Here's the code.

    return new kendo.data.DataSource({

        serverFiltering:true,

        serverPaging:true,

        serverSorting:true,

        pageSize:20,

 

        transport:{

            read:{

                url:getContentsListURL() // returns a URL of course!

            }

       },

 

        schema:{

            data:"items",

            total:"total_results"

        }

    });

});

Thanks.

Hello,

In order to trap error raised during DataSource read and sync Ajax requests, you may use its error event.
