Questions on Kendo UI for jQuery Forum

When I run my application on my Lumia 920 or in Chrome using user agent "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows Phone 8.0; Trident/6.0; IEMobile/10.0; ARM; Touch; NOKIA; Lumia 920)," all the kendo mobile controls are much too big and the application doesn't work at all (see attached screenshot).

I've only included kendo.mobile.all.min.js, kendo.mobile.all.min.css, and the entire images file in my solution. Any ideas what might cause this?

I see the same issue when I override the user agent in Chrome on the kendo mobile demos site (http://demos.kendoui.com/mobile/m/index.html) but not on my Lumia 920.

How to programmatically set messages for multiple custom rules?

The documentation is a bit spare on how custom rules should be handled in Validator. E.g., I am assuming that if you have multiple custom rules, they are all handled via decision trees in the "custom" configuration object. And if that is true, then I am assuming you have to do the same for the "message" configuration object if you want to have a different message for each custom rule.

However, it is not clear in the documentation how one should send the specific message text.

E.g., let's say we want to have two custom rules.

One rule checks the "firstname" input field and fails if the value does not include "Tom". On failure, we want the message for that field to be "Please be a Tom".
The other rule checks the "lastname" input field and fails if the value does not include "Smith". On failure, we want the message for that field to be "Please be a Smith".

Based on what examples I can find in the forums, my first guess at how one would do this looks like the following:

$("#myform").kendoValidator({

rules: {

custom: function(input) {

var ret = true;

if(input.is("[name=firstname]")){

ret = (input.val() === "Tom");

}

else if(input.is("[name=lastname]")){

ret = (input.val() === "Smith");

}

return ret;

}

},

messages: {

custom: function(input) {

if( input.is("[name=firstname]") ) {

// want the message to say "Please be Tom"

return 'Please be a Tom'; // this does not work

}

else if ( input.is(["name=lastname]") ) {

// want the message to say "Please be Tom"

return 'Please be a Smith'; // this does not work

}

});

The above code is for illustration and has not been actually tested.

However, I do know that the line return 'Please be Tom'; fails to place any text in the error message.

My hunch is that there is a specific formatting function that must be used. Any hints or leads, here, for what that might be?

TIA

[Solved] ViewModel and Show event

Hi Everyone,
I'm quite new to Kendo UI Mobile on Icenium, and i'm currently trying to refresh the data i have on my mvvm viewmodel, basically i have a view model with a datasource and a function named showView: wich i would like to be called after the view is presented to the user, i tried seeking on the documentation but i wasen't unable to make raise data-show on my viewmodel. Could any one be so kind to provide me a working example, the viewmodel is created like the one on visual studio sample, with an added showView: function()..
I need this because i need to load fresh data from localStorage, do some stuff with it and populate the datasource to show a result on the screen.

Thanks
Sebastian

IE tries to download Json result

Hi,
I convert my MVC project to use Kendo UI. I have action result return simple Json object status with message if there is an error. It was working fine before I convert.
now it tries IE tries to download the Json, Firefox and Chrome will show it as text.

here is my code. I add ("text/html", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet) I was hoping it will fix it but it didn't

return Json(new { Success = true }, "text/html", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8,
JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

return Json(new { Success = false, Message = formPost.Message }, "text/html", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8,
JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

form

Ajax.BeginForm(new AjaxOptions { OnSuccess = "handleModalSubmit" })

JS

function handleModalSubmit(result) {

if (result.Success) {
alert("Your request was sent Successfully");

}
else {
alert("There was problem sending your request");

}
}

[Solved] Event is incorrectly displayed, when showing business hours

Hi,
There's a bug in scheduler, which can be easily reproduced with your online demos.
- Choose the basic usage demo.
- Doubleclick an event, to get into edit mode
- Change the start Time to 5pm and the end Time to 7pm.
- Save the event.
- Click "show business hours"
As a result, the event is displayed throughout the whole day.
Any chance, to get a fix for that?

[Solved] Cannot get MultiSelect to retain values with MVVM

I am using the Multiselect widget along with Kendo MVVM. The tags are stored in an object that is saved to the database, this works fine when creating things.

But when retrieving them is a different story. I can add tags again, that is also fine, but when the item loads in from the database, it won't properly show the existing tag items that belong in the multiselect. So let's say I pull up an item with two tags. . { "Id": "tags/1", "Name" : "C#" }{ "Id" : "tags/2", "Name" : "Kendo UI" } .. these are not persisted into the multi-select box.

$widget = $element.kendoMultiSelect({

dataTextField: "Name",

dataValueField: "Id",

// define a custom template

dataSource: {

transport: {

read: {

dataType: "json",

url: $url

}

},

open: function (e) {

this.list.addClass("tag-cloud");

},

close: function (e) {

//e.preventDefault();

},

value: viewModel.get("Tags")

}).data("kendoMultiSelect");

<div style="width: 500px;">

<h2 class="fg-color-blueDeep">Tags</h2>

<div class="input-control" data-for="tags">

<select id="tags" multiple="multiple"

data-placeholder="Select Tags..."

class="dark tag-cloud"

data-bind="value: Tags"

style="width: 500px;"></select>

</div>

[Solved] Custom Editor with Inline Editing

Hi,

I am building a grid with inline editing and custom editors. I am wondering how to set the value of a field in this scenario. I don't think I want to use model.set in the change handler of my control, because I don't want to commit the data until the user clicks the "Save" button. Do I have to handle the save and cancel events myself to commit the entered data to the model (or not in the case of a cancel)? Or is there a built-in way to do this?

Thanks,
Steve

[Solved] e.model.isNew()

Hi,

I am using the e.model.isNew() to change the Title of the popup depending on whether Edit or Save is pressed.
That's working fine, I am however having an issue with then pressing the edit button to the added item.
The pop up is shown but with "Add", not "Edit" as the title.

If I refresh the page then it works as expected.

Code:
function onEdit(e) {
if (e.model.isNew()) {
// add
$(".k-window-title").text("Add");
} else {
// edit
$(".k-window-title").text("Edit");
}

}

Is there a way on the save event to specify that the model is no longer new?

function onSave(e) {
// set the model no longer as new ??

}
