POST Method Support?

[Luis]

Does Kendo Supports POST type? (I'm using beta 2)

If so how can i enable? here's my code:

                $("#undo").click(function(){
                    $("#window").kendoWindow({
                        title: "User saved",
                        contentUrl: '../data/insertUser.php',
                        type: "POST",
                        data: {name: 'name'},
                        close: onClose
                    });
                 });

Hi Luis,

Thank you for drawing our attention to this. We changed the window API to allow setting of all request options -- please refer to the changes and backwards compatibility help topic to migrate your code to the attached kendo.window.js. After that, you can use the refresh method like so:

    windowObject.refresh({
        url: "../data/insertUser.php",
        type: "POST",
        data: { name: "name" }
    });

All the best,

I realized I sent the wrong file. Please use the one attached to this post.

This file seems to make a conflict with one or some of the other dependencies, can you send me the kendo.all.min.js file instead?

Attached is the whole build.

Thanks a lot,
if anyone had this trouble the kendo window creation shall be:

var window = $("#window");

  

window.kendoWindow({

content:{

url: "url.php",

type="POST",

data: {name: "name"}

}

});

What am I missing on this?  I can't seem to get a POST to work.  Here's a jsFiddle with what I'm trying:

http://jsfiddle.net/pvanhouten/Cxuqb/

You'll need to use Fiddler or something like that to see that it's trying to GET rather than POST in the request.  Ignore the fact that it returns a 404 in the iframe, just a limitation with my test scenario on jsFiddle.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Phil - I have the same problem. I believe this is related to the iframe=true you specified.  If you turn that off it will post.  For me if I have iframe=true then I only do a GET on the content.  I was just coming to the forums to ask for help on this and noticed your post.  The unfortunate side affect for GET vs POST is that IE does some bad caching things with GET requests.  There are known work arounds ( like adding a random parameter to the get parameters ) but this feels like something telerik might have some help for.

how did you get yours to work. I am trying to do this as a refresh and an open. What am i doing wrong?

function openDetailWindow() {
            var grid = $("#AjaxGrid").data("kendoGrid");
            var selectedData = grid.dataItem(grid.select());
            var stringData = JSON.stringify(selectedData);

            var window = $("#UserDetailDiv").data("kendoWindow");
            var PopUpTitle = "User Detail: ";
            
            window.setOptions({
                title: PopUpTitle,
                content: "Loading....."
            });

           @* window.refresh({
                url: "@Url.Content("~/Inquiry/UserDetail?userData=")" + stringData + "&directCall=T"
         
            url: "~/Inquiry/UserDetail",
            type: "POST",
            data: { userData: stringData, directCall: "T" }



            });*@

            window.kendoWindow({
                content:{
                    url: "../Inquiry/UserDetail",
                    type: "POST",
                    data: { userData: stringData, directCall: "T" }
                }
            });
            

            window.open();
            window.center();

            
        }

will this work for MVC calling into a controller action as well?
