Question

I am new to KnockOutJs and I am implementing it as well as KoGrid. I have a grid set up that populates data from the data in IE8 but does not work in Chrome or FF.

Javascript –

function FillViewModel(data) {
    var vm = {
        MyResults: ko.observableArray(data)
    };

    return vm;
}

$(function () {
    $.post("/Controller/Search", function (returnedData) {

        ko.applyBindings(FillViewModel(JSON.parse(returnedData)));
    })
});

The method in the controller.

    [HttpPost]
    public string Search()
    {
        List<myData> resultList;
        resultList= _context.SelectAll();

        JavaScriptSerializer s = new JavaScriptSerializer();
        string json = s.Serialize(resultList);

        return json;
    }

Then I am populating it in my view as such.

    <div id="myTable" data-bind="koGrid: { data: MyResults}">
    </div>

As I said, it populates fine all 200 something rows in IE, but when I try to run it in FF or Chrome, it appears to all be called but the grid never shows.

Answer 1

I had a display: none that was taking over. What it came down to was I had some html 5 content that was being ignored in IE8 (hence the display: none on the object was being ignored” but Chrome and FF would recognize the html5 element and so the grid wouldn’t show because of the display on it. Silly error.
