[HaBo]

Can Any one help me how can i Format Telephone Number in Telerik MVC Grid.

this is my code

columns.Bound(e=>e.ID)
.ClientTemplate("<#= $.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-###}',Telephone) #> <br /> <#= $.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-###}',Fax) #> ").Title("Phone / Fax");

Hello Harsha,

To use the "#" character in a Template you should declare a JavaScript function which applies the formatting and call it from the template. For example:

columns.Bound(e=>e.ID)
    .ClientTemplate("<#= GetPhoneFaxTemplate(data) #>").Title("Phone / Fax");

<script type="text/javascript">
function GetPhoneFaxTemplate(data){
    var template = $.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-###}',data.Telephone) + "<br/>" +
         $.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-###}',data.Fax)
    return template;
}
</script>

Kind regards,

No use. with the Function

function GetPhoneFaxTemplate(data) {
       var template = $.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-####}', data.Telephone) + "<br/>" +
        $.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-####}', data.Fax)
       alert(template);
       return template;
   }

alert gives me ########## <br /> ##########

it is not formatting as declared in statement 

$.telerik.formatString('{0:###-###-####}', data.Telephone)

Hi Harsha,

The $.telerik.formatString method accepts number as parameter. So if the Telephone and Fax fields
are Strings it will not work as expected.
I attached a project which demonstrates how to use the Template in such cases. I hope it helps.
