Why does detail template contents refresh when you sort/group by/filter the grid?

[Mark]

Hi,

We are a small development team in China and are currently considering purchasing a copy of KendoUI's awesome widgets.  We met up with some problems while developing using the Grid.  I'm sorry, but we don't have any jsFiddle samples available.

I am using the Kendo Grid together with the detail template.  The detail template contains a HTML table with input fields in each cell.  Whenever we try to sort/group by/filter the grid, we realized that the change event of the data source is fired!  This "side-effect" refreshes the detail template and causes all of our input fields to empty out.

Is this the proper behaviour?  If so, how would we prevent the refreshing of the detail template/data source?

Regards,
Mark Huang
