Server Bound MVC Grid

[Neil]

I can't seem to find the answers to these questions.

 

1) Can you apply a double click to the row when server binding the grid, I've tried the following code in the OnDataBound function but it doesn't execute when double clicking the row?

2) I could also use a custom command button as well instead of the double click, but I can't find a handle to the row when I fire the the following script.

Double Click row script.

$(that.tbody).on("dblclick",

                "tr",

                function (e) {

                    var rowData = that.dataItem(this);

                    CheckForTemplate(rowData.Id);

                });

 

Custom Command button script.

columns.Command(command =>
                      {
                          command.Custom("Datasheet").Click("ViewDatasheet")
                      }).Width(200);

 

function ViewDatasheet(e) {

        e.preventDefault();

        var dataItem = this.dataItem($(e.currentTarget).closest("tr")); -> This line causes the attached script error.

        idcount = dataItem.Id;

        $.ajax({

            type: "POST",

            url: '@Url.Action("CheckForAssignedTemplate", "Data")',

            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",

            data: JSON.stringify({ moduleid: @Model.TheModule.Id, idcount: idcount }),

            dataType: "json",

            success: function(result) {

                if (result.datasheetid !== "") {

                    location.href = '@Url.Action("Index", "Datasheet")?datasheetid=' + result.datasheetid;

                } else {

                    var window = $("#window_newDataSheet").data("kendoWindow");

                    window.center().open();

                }

            },

            error: function() {

                $(".validation-summary-valid").text(result.message);

            }

        });

    }

I figured out a work around. In my case I was trying to find the Id for the row. Here's how I found it.

$(e.target).closest('tr').children('td')[2].innerText

2 = ordinal of the column in the grid row

Hello Neil,

The problem you are facing is that when Kendo UI Grid is server bound the DataSource is empty since there are no client-side operations. All operations are performed on the server only and the Kendo UI DataSource does not contain any data.
