Question

I have a Hierarchy style Kendo grid and the inner grid doesn’t seem to accept client templates. (I stripped the code irrelevant grid configuration columns out )
I really would like the client template to be something like
<a title="#=AlarmStatusDescription#">#=AlarmStatus#</a> but anytime I put anything other than a simple string in the ClientTemplate, the whole grid fails to load.

I’ve tried

• .ClientTemplate("#:AlarmStatus#")
• .ClientTemplate("#=AlarmStatus#")

• .ClientTemplate("<div class="myclass"></div>") with a separate <script type="text/html" id="myclass">#=AlarmStatus#</script>

  @(Html.Kendo().Grid<AccountModel>()

              .Name("Accounts_#=Id#")
              .Columns(columns =>
                           {
  
  columns.Command(command => command.Custom("Details").Click("showDetails")).Width(75);
  columns.Bound(o => o.AccountName).Width(150);                  
  columns.Bound(o => o.AlarmStatus).Width(100).ClientTemplate("#:AlarmStatus#");`
  
                               })
                  .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
                      .Ajax()
                      .Model(model =>{model.Id(p => p.AccountId);})
                      .Read(read => read.Action("DetailRead", "Csr", new { personId = #=Id#" }))
                  )
                  .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp))
                  .ToClientTemplate()
          )

You should use: .ClientTemplate("#= AlarmStatus #"). I think that you were missing the quotes ".
