I just created an editable using an example available on net.in this when i am trying to edit the grid then it doesn't show the value it shows the input field blank.can any body help ?
in edit i am calling this function
self.editFruit = function (fruit) {
if (self.editingItem() == null) {
// start the transaction
fruit.beginEdit(self.editTransaction);
// shows the edit fields
self.editingItem(fruit);
}
};
here is fiddle jsfiddle
At the time the binding is evaluated for the first time the editValue child observable of each of fruit's observables ( data-bind="value: name.editValue"
) doesn't exist. When you click on the "edit" link the editValue observable is created but knockout doesn't know that it has to rebind.
You can solve this 2 ways.
1 . Create a virtual if
binding around each input. When the if becomes true, the content will be reinserted back into the DOM causing the bindings to re-evaluate. Make sure that editValue observable is attached to its parent BEFORE editingItem observable is set, otherwise you are in the same situation
<!-- ko if: $root.isItemEditing($data) -->
<input data-bind="..."></input>
<!-- /ko -->
2 . Make sure that all observables have the editValue observable attached to the parent observable before the model is bound, the set editValue observable's value in the beginEdit fn.
function Fruit(data) {
var self = this;
self.name = ko.observable(data.name || "");
self.name.editValue = ko.observable();
self.rate = ko.observable(data.rate || "");
self.rate.editValue = ko.observable();
}
ko.observable.fn.beginEdit = function (transaction) {
...
if (self.slice)
self.editValue(self.slice());
else
self.editValue(self());
...
}
