Enable Postback for the Grid

[Bruce Gilham]

Hello All,

I may be using the wrong control to do this, I'm adding the grid to a CMS that is using ASP.MVC 5, but the management pages are using post backs to persist their data.  I have the grid rendering the data from the underlying object.  But I'm not getting any postback data from the grid.  Can I enable the Grid to post back the data?

Thanks

B

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for using Syncfusion Products.

We have analyzed your requirement and achieved by using “UrlAdaptor” for sent the postback to the server. Please find the below code snippet.

[view]

@(Html.EJ().Grid<RemoteServerAdaptorSample_129241.Models.Order>("Editing")

        .Datasource(ds => ds.URL("Home/Data").UpdateURL("Home/Update").Adaptor("UrlAdaptor"))       

         . . . .

)

[Controller]

public ActionResult Data(DataManager dm)

        {

            var DataSource = OrderRepository.GetAllRecords();

            DataResult ds = new DataResult();

            ds.result = DataSource.Skip(dm.Skip).Take(dm.Take);

            ds.count = DataSource.Count;

            return Json(ds, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

        }

Please refer the online documentation for urlAdaptor as follows:

For your reference we have attached the sample and the same can be downloaded from the link

Thank you for your response.

Ajax isn't available for this project.

I found another solution using knockout.js to store the data and then writing the entities out to hidden form fields which than are sent to the server on a page post back.
