[Solved] .NET 4.0 - jsonp

[Jay]

Now that WCF will support JsonP with the conditional binding tag "crossDomainScriptAccessEnabled".  Will/Does the Telerik MVC controls, specifically the grid, have support for this?  Currently I'm using a hacked jqgrid, but I wouldn't mind switching to a cleaner Telerik solution once it becomes available.

Thanks!

Hi   , 

   Dont know if this could be a reference at all, but, I did some Telerik MVC Grid work with getJSON. You might look at this ....

    just to get an overview of the script and MVC grid. Maybe you can fit it with JSONP.  Also, from there, you can get the code and working project.

Hope this is helpful, I wouldnt mind knowing how things worked out.

 thanks

Hi Jeff,

I managed to get the MVC grid to bind using JSONP. However this required modification to the source which means the current official version is not going to support them. Still I believe we can add built-in support for JSONP binding using some sort of configuration.

Let me know if you are interested in trying the prototype application.

@IQworks:  Thanks for the post, I checked it out, and I'm pretty sure that'll work fine.   To get JSONP to work with jqGrid I modified it's code to make a similar call to getJSON.   Jquery's support for JSONP is pretty good.

@Atanas:  I'd love to prototype the app.   I have all of the infrastructure in place including a WCF service that returns JSONP data (Which is ridiculously easy to setup in .NET 4.0)

With the way the internet is moving, all these services available (currently mostly through social networks) I see the desire for JSONP consumption going through the roof in the future.

Hi Jeff Sheldon,

I am hereby sending you the working demo. I can give it a spin. Please take into account that it is using a modified version of the grid javascript (not officially released).
