Hi All
I'm just trying out the jsTree for the first time and like what I'm seeing. I've got it loading and formatting as I want and have it loading it's data using an ajax query to a method in my controller:-
The thing is, this is on a view that's being served up from an MVC controller. The controller populates a bunch of Select Lists into the ViewBag which the View then uses to populate various drop downs. It feels natural to populate the tree view in a similar way, i.e. by putting the necessary data into the ViewBag and then using that to populate the data in the View. Somehow having the View call to a method in the controller class just feels a bit odd in this circumstance.
I've had a shufty at the jsTree documentation and a bit of a play with the syntax to see if I can get it to load from the ViewBag but I don't think it's supported. I thought I'd post here, though, to see if anyone knew different.
edit> I should probably specify that this is jsTree3, found here. (I wasted a lot of time trying to get code snippets from previous versions to work before I figured out I was being a numpty)
