[Solved] Panelbar RenderPage bug?

[Matt]

I am having a problem where I have a MVC razor layout that has a Telerik MVC Panelbar on it. Everything works fine until I add a RenderPage() above the panel bar in my <header></header> tag for the purpose of using a shared header navigation. When I add this in, the PanelBar simply doesn't render any html and no errors occur. If I take the RenderPage and put it below the panelbar code in the same layout file, everything works fine. If I take the panelbar code and put it in a different cshtml file and call RenderPage to pull it back in to the layout, it works fine.There seems to be some sort of bug going on here. I am using Telerik.Web.Mvc version 2011.3.1306.340

Hi Matt,

 I tried to reproduce the problem locally, but everything worked as expected. It is possible that some code in your header page might interfere with the panelbar, but without being able to reproduce the problem locally, we cannot be of much help.

Could you please check the attached project and modify it so it reproduces the same problem? Attach it back and I will check it right away.

I am able to reproduce it. I am using Areas. So I added an area in and now you can see it do it. 

If you open this URL the panel bar will not load

http://localhost/dashboard/status 


if you remove this line from Areas/Dashboard/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml the panel bar will load

@RenderPage("~/Views/Shared/_Header.cshtml")

Hi again Matt,

Thank you for the project - now I see what the problem is.
Actually, I found a couple of problems in the code:
1. You manually import jquery in the view, but you don't disable the automatic insertion of the same script it from the ScriptRegistrar.
2. In your area's layout file, you use server block (@{...} )to add the panelbar, while you should use @(... ).

Once I fixed these problems, the panelbar was displayed as expected.


Kind regards,
