[Solved] Render method

[Varghese]

In asp.net web forms, it is not necessary to call the Render method to display a user or custom control. The Telerik mvc extensions support a method called Render(). I can display the Telerik control without making the Render() call explicitly. Where is it necessary to use this method Render()?

Hi Varghese,

 The Render() method is required when you need to nest Telerik Extensions - for example when you need to use a grid inside a tabstrip or when you need to nest html extensions which cannot be rendered using @() such as Html.Form.

In most other cases this is not required. For example the following are equivalent:

@(Html.Telerik().Window())

@ { Html.Telerik().Window().Render() ; }

Thank you. To me it is a limitation.
