HI all.  I'm trying to figure out if Kendo UI Grid is suitable for my scenario.  Basically, I'm pulling data from a REST API from a server product.  I have to format that this data a bit on the client side a bit so I can't bind it directly to the grid using the server data binding mode.  I also can't deploy any server side code so it all has to happen client side.  

Basically, I want to retrieve the data myself and bind it to the grid.  That part is pretty straight forward, but then i want to make additional server side requests when a user sorts or pages.  Can I do this with Kendo UI grid?  I've looked through the docs and found bits and pieces of what I need but I didn't really see a way to override these events.

Thanks,
Corey

Hi Corey,

I am dealing with this same scenario and am using templates to achieve this.  See http://www.kendoui.com/forums/ui/grid/how-to-change-command-buttons-dynamically-in-data-bound-event.aspx for details. Take a look at Alexander's fiddle.
