I´m trying to implement Kendo widgets two level deep but the Razor engine keeps complaining: "Inline markup blocks (@Content) cannot be nested. Only one level of inline markup is allowed."
Is there a way for the Razor engine to render helpers two level deep?
My code example:
@(Html.Kendo().TabStrip()
.Name("tabStrip")
.Items(tabstrip =>
{
tabstrip.Add().Text("Strip1")
.Selected(true)
.Content(@<text>
@RenderPanelBar()
</text>);
tabstrip.Add().Text("Strip2")
.Content(@<text>
</text>);
})
)
@helper RenderPanelBar(){
@(Html.Kendo().PanelBar()
.Name("panelBar")
.ExpandMode(PanelBarExpandMode.Single)
.Items(panelbar =>
{
panelbar.Add().Text("panel1")
.Expanded(true)
.Content(@<div>
<div>
@(Html.Kendo().Grid<GroupViewModel>()
.Name("GroupGrid")
.Columns(columns =>
{
columns.Bound(c => c.GroupID).Hidden();
columns.Bound(c => c.Name);
columns.Command(command => { command.Edit(); command.Destroy(); });
})
.ToolBar(toolbar =>
{
toolbar.Create();
toolbar.Template(@<text>
@RenderDropDown() //<-- here the error occurs
</text>);
}
)
.Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.InLine))
.Scrollable(s => s.Enabled(false))
.Selectable(s => s.Enabled(true).Mode(GridSelectionMode.Single))
.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
.Ajax()
.Read(read => read.Action("Group_Grid_Read", "Home"))
.Events(events => events.Error("error_handler"))
.Model(model => model.Id(p => p.GroupID))
.Create(update => update.Action("EditingInline_Create", "Home"))
.Update(update => update.Action("EditingInline_Update", "Home"))
.Destroy(update => update.Action("EditingInline_Destroy", "Home"))
)
.Events(e => e.Change("onGroupGridChange").Save("GroupGrid_Save"))
)
</div>
</div>
</div>);
panelbar.Add().Text("panel2")
.Content(@<div>
//stuff abbreviated
</div>
);
})
)
}
@helper RenderDropDown(){
<div class="toolbar">
<label class="category-label" for="category">Show products by category:</label>
@(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
.Name("categories")
.OptionLabel("All")
.DataTextField("CategoryName")
.DataValueField("CategoryID")
.AutoBind(false)
.Events(e => e.Change("categoriesChange"))
.DataSource(ds =>
{
ds.Read("ToolbarTemplate_Categories", "Grid");
})
)
</div>
}
