type ODATA - no additional parameters??

[Karl]

If I set the type of datasource to "odata" additional parameters is not added to the request string. This is my code:

var odataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({

    type: 'odata',

    transport: {

        read: {

            url: server + query, // the service url

            data: { //additional parameters sent to the remote service

                buchungskonto: function() {

                    return "'" + $("#search").val() + "'";

                }

            }

        }

    },

    change: function() { // subscribe to the CHANGE event of the data source

        $("#results").html(kendo.render(template2, this.view()));

    }

});

The resulting request is:

/my.services/SalesData/GetCustomers()?$format=json&$inlinecount=allpages&$callback=callback

As you can see parameter "buchungskonto" is missing. It is a call to a wcf data service, GetCustomers() is mapping to some SP, "buchungskonto" one of the parameters passed to the SP. So the correct call should be:

/my.services/SalesData/GetCustomers()?$format=json&$inlinecount=allpages$callback=callback&buchungskonto='1'

Is this a bug?

Besides that: really great product! BUT, and this is a really big BUT: the documentation is not on the level I'm accustomed to from telerik. I think there is still a lot of work to do for you.

@karl:  omitting the quotes like

return $("#search").val();

can be the solution.
