Telerik Mvc Combobox large data loading issue on AutoCompleteFilterMode

Hi all

Its been long break...Here i am back with little out of box solution which is not available on internet,i did the solution and felt to share it with you all so that you people do not face the issues which i faced while working with telerik mvc combobox

As we know (People who use telerik mvc combobox) that when telerik mvc combobox is used and there is huge data to be loaded from controls action method, and if AutoCompleteFilterMode is on,the combo simply hangs in IE and traditional IE error will come up saying "SCRIPT IS RUNNING INFINITE,DO YOU WANT TO STOP THE SCRIPT", and will just kill the browser

So, let us cut the story short and come up directly on solution,say you are having following combobox code

<%: Html.Telerik().ComboBoxFor(model => modelfooId)
.AutoFill(true)
.BindTo(new SelectList(Model.fooList, "Value", "Text", Model.fooId))
.HtmlAttributes(new {style = "width:400px"})
.Filterable(filtering => filtering.FilterMode(AutoCompleteFilterMode.StartsWith))
.ClientEvents(c => c.OnChange("MakeSelection").OnClose("MakeSelection"))
.HighlightFirstMatch(true)
%>

you can observe the client event registered,which is actual hack for the solution,now those javascript function is as simple as that like following

function MakeSelection(e) {
    $('.t-animation-container').hide();
}

Now, try refreshing your page and try selecting any of the options, it will not hang and will run as you want

Its like magic,"Its misty until you know the trick behind"...

let me know your feedback...

Set up leprechaun code generation with Sitecore XM Cloud Starterkit

Hi Sitecorians, It has been amazing learning year so far and with the change in technology and shift of the focus on frontend frameworks and composable products, it has been market demand to keep learning and exploring new things. Reasons behind this blog Today's topic is something that was in my draft from April-May, and I always thought that there is already a good documentation out there for  Leprechaun  and a blog post is not needed, Until I realized that there was so many of us facing same kind of issues and same kind of problems and spending same amount of time, That is where I thought, if I could write something which can reduce that repetitive troubleshooting time, That would really help the community. 1)  In a project environment, if we get into some configuration issues, we resolve them, we make sure we are not blocked and continue, but if you think same issue, same step and same scenario will come to other people, so if we can draft it online, it will help othe...

An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details.

You have noticed many times that everything was working fine and suddenly the below error starts coming and you find no way to work it out An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details. The reason for this is the receiving size of WCF service is smaller then the data which is coming from service It was working before because it was small,So you will have to try to increase the receiving setting in your end point,Possible settings can be following maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647" That would definately help you!!!
