In MVC How to pass a parameter to tabStrip when I

In my view page, I have a button. When I click the button, I want to make the window open. The window has some tabstrips, and in the tabstrip I want to show a grid and pass a parameter to the grid. Does kendo UI allow me to do this?

    .Actions(actions => actions.Pin().Minimize().Maximize().Close())
    .Events(ev => ev.Close("onClose"))

        )
   )
 //How to get the parameter from main View 
 function GetParaFromMainView(){

 }

You can pass a parameter. But it will require some changes in your views. In the same way you pass the model from the controller it is the same. I will just write the lines who need to be changed or added.

Main View

This line to open the window:

.Content(@Html.Partial("_TabStrip").ToHtmlString())

To:

.Content(@Html.Partial("_TabStrip",paraA).ToHtmlString())

_TabStrip

In your _TabStrip.cshtml view you need to add the model in the top:

@model System.String //or just string

... And change this line:

.Content(@Html.Partial("_Grid").ToHtmlString());

.Content(@Html.Partial("_Grid",Model).ToHtmlString());

_Grid

And in your _Grid.cshtml add to the top too the model

@model System.String // or just string

And change this line:

.Read(read => read.Action("Customers_Read", "Grid").Data("GetParaFromMainView"))
    )

.Read(read => read.Action("Customers_Read", "Grid").Data(Model))
    )

I hopeit will help youto solve your problem. Use of an overload of @Html.Partial to pass the model whichis your cas a string. Have a try a let me know.
