Throughout he application, we have several Kendo Grids.  Some have functionality attached to the dataBound event, some do not.  How can I extend the dataBound event to always call some functionality without discarding the functionality added to specific grids.

Let's say I have two grids, 'grid-a' and 'grid-b'.  'grid-a' has functionality associated with its dataBound event (call it gridASpecialFunction).  I also want to globally always call a function on dataBound of all grids (call it updateGridLookAndFeel).  How can I make sure I always call updateGridLookAndFeel for all grids without having to add it to each grid's dataBound event individually.  Also I don't want to discard any existing dataBound event functionality (gridASpecialFunction).

Note, updateGridLookAndFeel should be called after any local functionality.

Thanks,
--Ed

Hello Ed,

I suggest you to use the bind method which allows events binding after widget initialization (the approach will work well with remote data).
Please check the following example:

I hope this will help.
