[Solved] Html Title of the column

[Akzhol The Kyrgyz]

Hi,

I need a checkbox as a title in the column[ title will be "select all", each individual cell will "select the item"):
- In previous version I was doing this by supplying html as a title.i.e.:

• column.Add(item =>{%>

                    <input id="cb<%= item.ID %>" style="border: none" type="checkbox" value="<%= item.ID %>"
                        onclick="checkClick('cb<%= item.ID %>');" name="contentId" />
                    <%}).Title(" <input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"cbCheckAll\" onclick=\"checkAll('contentId');\" />").Width(35);


This is not working in new version of Telerik, plain html is being printed instead of checkbox. How can I achieve same result as in old version?


Thanks and Regards.

Hi Akzhol The Kyrgyz,

This is an interesting way of using the Title :)

To enable it again you can modify the source of the grid. Open GridColumnHeaderHtmlBuilder.cs and replace this

new TextNode(Column.Title).AppendTo(parent);

with this

new LiteralNode(Column.Title).AppendTo(parent);

In the future we will provide a HeaderTemplate method which will allow the user to set the HTML contents of the header.

Greetings,

  I was referred to this link as I am looking to put a <br /> to wrap my titles.  Do you know if the Q2 2010 MVC release will allow the header to be template based?

Hi EricB,

No, header templates are not scheduled for the Q2 release.
