How to Render ASP.NET MVC Grid in Bootstrap Modal?
We can render the grid inside a bootstrap modal by rendering grid inside a “modal-body” class.
While using bootstrap modal we need to refer the “bootstrap.min.js” script file and “bootstrap.min.css” file which are necessary for rendering Bootstrap modal.
Solution:
JS:
<div class="container">
<h2>Modal Example</h2>
<!-- Trigger the modal with a button -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-info btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>
<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" role="dialog">
<div class="modal-dialog" style="float:left;left: 368px">
<!-- Modal content-->
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal Header</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<div id="Grid"></div>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
// the datasource "window.gridData" is referred from jsondata.min.js
$("#Grid").ejGrid({
dataSource: window.gridData,
columns: [
{ field: "OrderID", headerText: "Order ID", width: 75},
{ field: "CustomerID", headerText: "Customer ID", width: 80 },
{ field: "EmployeeID", headerText: "Employee ID", width: 75},
{ field: "Freight", width: 75, format: "{0:C}"},
{ field: "ShipCity", headerText: "Ship City", width: 110 }
]
});
</script>
MVC:
<div class="container">
<h2>Modal Example</h2>
<!-- Trigger the modal with a button -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-info btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>
<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" role="dialog">
<div class="modal-dialog" style="float:left;left: 368px">
<!-- Modal content-->
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal Header</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
@(Html.EJ().Grid<object>("FlatGrid")
.Datasource((IEnumerable<object>)ViewBag.datasource)
.AllowPaging()
.Columns(col =>
{
col.Field("OrderID").HeaderText("OrderID").Width(75).Add();
col.Field("CustomerID").HeaderText("CustomerID").Width(90).Add();
col.Field("EmployeeID").HeaderText("EmployeeID").Width(75).Add();
col.Field("Freight").HeaderText("Freight").Width(75).Format("{0:C}").Add();
col.Field("ShipCity").HeaderText("ShipCity").Width(100).Add();
}) )
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div></div>
ASP:
<asp:Content runat="server" ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent">
<div class="container">
<h2>Modal Example</h2>
<!-- Trigger the modal with a button -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-info btn-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>
<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" role="dialog">
<div class="modal-dialog" style="float: left; left: 368px">
<!-- Modal content-->
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal Header</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<ej:Grid ID="Grid1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True">
<Columns>
<ej:Column Field="OrderID" HeaderText="Order ID" Width="75" />
<ej:Column Field="CustomerID" HeaderText="Customer ID" Width="80" />
<ej:Column Field="EmployeeID" HeaderText="Employee ID" Width="80" />
<ej:Column Field="Freight" HeaderText="Freight" Width="80" Format="{0:C}" />
<ej:Column Field="ShipCity" HeaderText="ShipCity" Width="150" />
</Columns>
</ej:Grid>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</asp:Content>
