Manually Add rows to radGrid from Client

[Paul Severson]

I am new to the radGrid api, so bear with me.

Is there a way to add data (rows) to the grid from the client (javascript) WITHOUT binding the grid? I am thinking of something along the lines of a Rows() collection with an Add() method?

If not,  is it possible to late-bind the grid from the client using ADO.Net objects?  How about List<> or Dictionary<> objects - late-binding still being the key?

Thanks

Hello Paul,

Concerning the first question - this scenario is not supported by the grid's client-side API.

As for the second one, could give more details on your scenario. In this regards, you might be interested in looking through the following samples and the related help topics:

Tsvetoslav:

Thx for the reply:

1. We have purchased licenses for the Telerik library - is there a better place for me to submit questions now?
2. This grid will ultimately be part of a Bing Maps application, displaying results from our database based on results found from geographical searches within our mapping application.  Right now we are using a standard HTML table built dynamically via javascript completely on the client.   We need to preserve this dynamic client-side functionality. 
3. The database results are currently return to the client as a List<T> object
4. The closest example you have on your site to what I am looking can be found here: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/client/livedata/defaultcs.aspx
5. I have gotten close via some code from this sample - my binding code is similar to what is shown and it does not throw errors,  but I get an empty grid on binding.
6. I have tried json encoding the results in several different ways,  but nothing has worked.

Thx in advance for any help you can give.

Please disregard - grid bind is now working.
