Hi!

Im getting an "invalid template" exception when initializing a grid.

This is the JS code:

jQuery("#uipoc_readwrite_messagelist_table").kendoGrid();

This is the complete exception message:

Invalid template:'<tr><td>#=Betreff#</td><td>#=Absender#</td><td>#=Erhalten#</td><td>#=#</td><td>#=#</td></tr>' Generated code:'var o,e=kendo.htmlEncode;with(data){o='<tr><td>'+(Betreff)+'</td><td>'+(Absender)+'</td><td>'+(Erhalten)+'</td><td>'+()+'</td><td>'+()+'</td></tr>';}return o;'

This is the html at the time the code is executed:

Any replies? I also have the same problem. I'm using kendo ui grid, backbone, underscore and require.js

'Error: Invalid template:'<tr><td>${ItemDescription}</td><td>${Qty}</td><td>${Unit Price}</td><td>${Extended Price}</td></tr>' Generated code:'var o,e=kendo.htmlEncode;with(data){o='<tr><td>'+(e(ItemDescription))+'</td><td>'+(e(Qty))+'</td><td>'+(e(Unit Price))+'</td><td>'+(e(Extended Price))+'</td></tr>';}return o;'' when calling method: [nsIDOMEventListener::handleEvent]

Filtered chrome url chrome://firebug/content/net/spy.js

#Update

anyway i solved it. It seems like when setting up columns for the grid it doesn't accept spaces. Is this a bug?

Hello Gino,

This error can usually be caused by the following:

- mismatching opening and closing code block characters (#) inside the template declaration
- using a # character as a literal without escaping it with backslashes
- nesting Kendo UI templates, which brings the need to escape non-literal # characters in the inner template, in order to "hide" them from the outer template

These possible issues are discussed on the following page:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/framework/templates/overview

I can also suggest removing parts of the used template to determine which one is causing the issue.

If additional assistance is needed, please provide the template so we can inspect it locally and determine what may be causing the issue.

I encountered a similar error with the Kendo UI MVC Grid when the ClientTemplate was specified after the EditorTemplateName

The following will throw the error:

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model.BillOfMaterialItems)
            .Name("BillOfMaterialsGrid")
            .Columns(columns =>
            {
                columns.Bound(o => o.UnitOfMeasure).Width(200).Title("Unit")
                    .HeaderHtmlAttributes(new { @style = "text-align:left;" })
                    .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:left;" })
                    .EditorTemplateName("UnitOfMeasureDropDownList")
                    .EditorViewData(new { Units = Model.CurrentUnits })
                    .ClientTemplate("#:UnitOfMeasure.UomDisplayName#");
                   // etc

but putting the ClientTemplate before the EditorTemplateName eliminates the error:

        @(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model.BillOfMaterialItems)
            .Name("BillOfMaterialsGrid")
            .Columns(columns =>
            {
                columns.Bound(o => o.UnitOfMeasure).Width(200).Title("Unit")
                    .HeaderHtmlAttributes(new { @style = "text-align:left;" })
                    .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:left;" })
                    .ClientTemplate("#:UnitOfMeasure.UomDisplayName#")//NOTE: this must be declared before EditorTemplateName and EditorViewData.
                    .EditorTemplateName("UnitOfMeasureDropDownList")
                    .EditorViewData(new { Units = Model.CurrentUnits });
                    // etc

where the UnitOfMeasureDropDownList.cshtml file is placed in MVC project /Views/Shared/EditorTemplates and is specified as follows:

@model App.Common.POCO.Generated.Procedures.Athena.UnitOfMeasureDataSource
@{
    // Access the actual parameter values anywhere including the kendo helpers below (if any) via ViewData:
    var units = (int)ViewData["Units"];
}
@(
    Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(m => m)
        .DataTextField("UomName")
        .DataValueField("UomId")
        .HtmlAttributes(new {@style = "width: 200px;"})
        .OptionLabel("Select Unit of Measure...")
        .DataSource(source =>
        {
            source.Read(read =>
            {
                read.Action("UnitOfMeasureDataSource", "DataSource", new { @area = "Helpers", @units=units });
            })
            .ServerFiltering(true);
        })
        .Enable(true)
        .AutoBind(true)
)

Hi Chris,

Thank you for sharing your approach with the community.

Could you please confirm that the ClientTemplate is working as expected? The recommended syntax is "#=Model.PropertyName#" as in the following demo:
