[Solved] Showing a view instead of the default edit window in a grid

[Heath]

The problem:

In my edit popup I want to show list of available roles users can be assigned to as an array of checkboxes in check the roles a user already belongs to. The list of roles is dynamic and comes from the database and thus cannot be hard coded.

The grid would look something like:

User Name | Roles
Bob            | Admin,ReadWrite,ReadOnly
Tom            | ReadOnly

So the pop-up would look something like:

User Name: Bob
Roles:
[x ] Admin
[x ] ReadWrite
[x ] Readonly

I don't see this supported inherently by the mvc grid control so I've been trying to find a suitable work around.

I was thinking that overriding the OnEdit event of the grid might allow me to replace the content of the edit popup with a view. I've used a similar method in the asp.net radgrid using radwindows fired by the edit command... surely someone's already run into this and has a workable solution?

My current web trudging has lead me to believe that my answer lies somewhere in Display/EditorTemplates. If I manage to figure this out I'll post the solution here.

Unfortunately this solution is leaving me high and dry as the display/editor templates don't work with ajax binding.
