HowTo: Select the value of the textbox in the cell Im editing.

It took me a while to figure this out, so I thought a post here about it wouldn't hurt. I really think this should be a parameter in the grid.
In my version (2012.2.710.340), when Im editing a cell, the marker places itself on position 0, before the value. Because of this, the user has to manually select and delete the value of the textbox before entering anything. Since we're all a bunch of lazy bastards, this just won't work :). When I click a cell, I want the value to be selected, so that I just start typing to replace it.

To achive this, just add a hook on the "edit"-event like this.

<script type="text/javascript">

$(function () {

// get a reference to the grid

var grid = $("#@gridname").data("kendoGrid");

grid.bind("edit", function (e) {

e.container.find("input").select();

});

</script>

How about a showcase gallery?

This is something KendoUI needs. Sencha has a very nice showcase gallery with various apps made with their Touch framework.

I think KendoUI would benefit from some more marketing in general. I sent 2 emails with ideas on how to promote Telerik in my City but didn't even get a response, a bit of a bummer If I may say so. I think this is a great framework that needs more exposure. I will at least write a Case Study soon :).

Best way to put a datepicker on a heading (h1)?

We have a page that displays statistics for a month. When you go to the page the main heading is November 2012 (or whatever month is selected).

What would be the best way to use the datepicker to allow the users to click the date and get the drop down, to select months?

I don't want the h1 to be an input.

Bug when switching tab

I think I have found a bug in the dropdownlist demo:

http://demos.kendoui.com/web/dropdownlist/index.html

Tested with chrome. If you click on the dropdownlist control, the list shows up, now while the list is open, switch to another Chrome tab and then come back. Now the control acts weird, when you click on it it opens and closes immediately.

So if you switch tab while the dropdownlist is open, somethign breaks.

Editor can't handle absolute URL in background-image style

I have this bug in Telerik ASP MVC extensions but apparently Kendo UI inherited it from MVC extensions
Steps to reproduce:

1) go to http://demos.kendoui.com/web/editor/api.html
2) set value
<div style='background-image:url(http://demos.kendoui.com/content/shared/styles/sprite.misc.png)' >test</div>
3) click get value button

Expected value is
<div style='background-image:url(http://demos.kendoui.com/content/shared/styles/sprite.misc.png)'>test</div>
but instead we get
<div style="background-image:url(http;">test</div>

Some ideas for theme creation

Disclaimer. While this post is done here I think this idea applies to all Telerik Products.

Most of us here are Coders and not Designers. There are however tons of good designers around so I thought Telerik could try something I thought of.

Maybe you guys have heard of the Site Themeforest and it's sister sites. This is a great resource for us who are design handicapped (somewhat at least).

So this is my idea.
Why not encourage all those great designers to create themes not only for KendoUI but also WPF etc? I think we could get some amazing stuff if the designers were given some good incentives (ie money). Maybe a joint push from Telerik and the men behind Themeforest?

Also. Why not have some popular themes for the mobile theme designer, ie themes made by others like you get in JQuery Mobile and JQuery UI?

Some ideas for Telerik and the Community to think on.
