Scott, are you able to replicate these issues in the provided WebGrid live samples?

Thanks!

This issue has been fixed in recent forum update. Thank you.

Stefan, this issue has been fixed, and the fix will be available in this month's hotfix due sometime next week. Thanks.

Hi Juliet,

When the self referencing is bound to datasource control, it's true that it requires the parent row to be existed in order to create the appropriate data structure for the child. That is not required though using previous approach (InitializeSelfReferencingDataSource) since the data cache is automatically enabled using that previous approach.

We will consider an enhancement in the WebGrid by adding a scenario where developer returns a final shaped data through SelectSelfReferenceRowMethod, thus WebGrid doesn't need to reconstruct the structure again to achieve the shape required to project the children.

The work item# is 410 for your tracking reference. Please subscribe to this thread so you can get the notification when this enhancement is implemented.

Thank you for your post, and let me know if you have any other questions or feedback.

Eric, thanks for your feedback.

Our sites are now developed using Web 2.0 standards such as XHTML and table-less layout. Although these standards look good and run consistently in all modern browsers such as Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera, the only browser that will fail is IE 6.x or lower. That's due to their poor compatibility on Web standards.

If you can't upgrade your IE version, how about using other browsers such as Apple Safari 4? Our site is highly optimized for Safari 4, and you'll get best view and performance with it.

Anyway, we'll look into the possibility to support IE6 for our community site, at least for the basic layout and function.
