Kendo Grid Heirarchy using Server Binding for ASP.NET

[Avitot]

        Our team is currently investigating the Kendo UI to possibly implement it with our projects. Today I started investigating about creating hierarchical grids with Kendo UI and I have observed that arrow buttons for the hierarchy grid are shown only when this is included in the html helper:

.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
    .Ajax()
)

    I want to use Server data binding instead of Ajax binding but whenever I omit the preceding code in my helper, the buttons for hierarchy don't show up.

• Is it possible to have grid hierarchy through server binding?
• Kindly attach a simple demo with your reply. Thanks!

anyone??

If you download the Kendo Trial there are MVC examples under KendoFolder\wrappers\aspnetmvc\Examples

If you run the solution you will find an example of a server bound grid with detail named "Server detail template"

I hope this helps.

Hi Avitot,

I need exactly the same thing.
Did you find a solution?

It would be great if you share some ideas ;)

have a nice day.

Hi Avitot,

 
We already provide such example in the offline example that comes with your KendoUI for ASP.NET MVC installation - please check the full file path below:

• ..\Telerik\Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC Q2 2013\wrappers\aspnetmvc\Examples\Areas\razor\Views\web\grid\serverhierarchy.cshtml
