[Solved] Grid Hierarchy not working. Demo attached

Hi,

I have read almost all examples of Kendo Grid hierarchy and tried everything but it does not seem to work for me. I am not doing anything extra at all. Please see the demo project here http://www.mediafire.com/?5qjyp40qfef7dkb

I always get 'Uncaught Error: Invalid template:'' error.

You will need Kendo.Mvc.dll file to run this project. You could see the error once you un-comment this line //.ClientDetailTemplateId("employeesTemplate")

Thanks!

Several Problems/Questions with MVVM in Kendo

I've just been recently looking into KendUI as a solution for my company and in tests I have run into a few problems and have not found anything useful in your documentation.

The questions:

Can you create a model outside of the view model and reference it from the view model?
In other frameworks such as KnockoutJS you can create your view model and models independently of each other. I don't believe I saw a way to do this in your documentation

How do you set the option a select defaults to?
I noticed that there is an option in the drop down list widget for and option named "optionLabel" that creates a default option in your drop down list. I tried using what I assumed was your method of specifying it in the MVVM framework using "data-option-label" but that only added an option to the select list and didn't display it by default. Does this have to be done using the value binding in order to work correctly?

How do you specify calculated fields in select boxes?
I saw in your documentation that you used

<div data-bind="text: person.lowerCaseName"></div>

to call a function that returns a lowercase string but if I do that on a select I just get the string representation of the function I declared. If I added parenthesis to the end then the correct value was displayed in the select box but that broke the code if I used an optionLabel, which leads into my next question.

How do you use calculated values in situations where you also use the "optionLabel?"
I tried using both on a select but exceptions were thrown because it was trying to find the calculation function on the option label which is only a string object.

kendoui mobile with ember js

Hi,
I wish to know how i can combine kendoui mobile version with ember js, this is pretty straight forward with kendoui web, where you can wrap up the widget in views using didinsert method. but kendoui mobile requires an instantiation of app and has its own architecture different from kendoui web. how then do i go about using emberjs to power the application flow while only using kendoui mobile for views rendering

Selecting a value from DropDownList does not change cell value

I have a grid bound to an XML data source. Some elements in the XML may be missing; in this case, the value of the corresponding field should be null. This is working fine when I use a string or number-type editor, but when using a DropDownList, if the element is missing from the XML, the grid cell remains blank after I select a value from the list. You can see this in this fiddle (try selecting a value in the bottom right cell).

DropDownList and modal Window

Hi,

I downloaded the new release today (upgrade from beta 2)...a new bug appears to have been introduced.

I've created a modal Window and one of the controls in that window happens to be a DropDownList. When I click to open the list, the Popup displays behind the window (see attached screen shot). This occurs in all major browsers (ie/ff/chrome/safari)

After a bit of inspecting, it looks like the z-index of the Popup (from the DropDownList) is less than the z-index of the Window, this explains it's positioning. I can see that the popup code tries to set it's index to be greater than any of it's parents in the DOM, but since the modal Window is not one of the direct parents of the Popup, then it doesn't work.

I've tried explicitly setting the z-index but that appears to get overridden by internal code in the Popup.

Any ideas/suggestions/fixes would be greatly appreciated.

kendo.history question

Hello!

I have been trying to deal with some SEO/link issues for my client and I wanted to see how hard it would be to implement the new html5 pushState/replaceState and the popstate event stuff with kendo. It's not going well though -- I'm able to change the address bar, but the back button is giving me grief.

I thought it would be good to check out what the kendo.history code does, so I downloaded the source but could not find the history code.

So, my questions are -- 1. where is the code for kendo.history? 2. Will you be supporting the new html5 pushState/replaceState and the popstate event stuff with kendo?

Thanks!

[Solved] TabStrip and progress loader

I am trying to disable the contents of a TabStrip when it is loading. I am using kendo.ui.progress() to do so, but it covers the whole page, not just the content of the tab.

Here is a jsFiddle showing what I am doing.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

data binding to model

Hi,

Is there a way to data bind selected value to model. I have try to use this, data, and self but it does not work. What does work is creating a nested object and binding it to a user selection.

Below is what I am trying to do but it does not work:

<div id="data-view" data-bind="source: this" data-template="data-view-template">

</div>

<script type="text/html" id="data-view-template">

<div>
