Mods

Extending the behaviour of the AjaxCheckboxList using mods. The new components have the same features as the AjaxCheckboxList but render (look) differently and have additional properties which can be specified inside the Extension Method (e.g. .Multiselect() )

Ochk

AjaxCheckboxListDemo.aspx
<% CategoriesOchk.AjaxCheckboxList()
    .Value(new[] { Db.Categories[0].Id, Db.Categories[1].Id })
    .Ochk()
    .Url(Page.Url().Action("GetCategories", "Data")); %>
<awe:Ocon runat="server" ID="CategoriesOchk" />

ButtonGroup

AjaxCheckboxListDemo.aspx
<% CategoriesButtonGroup.AjaxCheckboxList()
    .ButtonGroup()
    .Url(Page.Url().Action("GetCategories", "Data")); %>
<awe:Ocon runat="server" ID="CategoriesButtonGroup" />

Multiselect



Parent and Child with NoSelectClose(), values can be reordered by dragging them
AjaxCheckboxListDemo.aspx
<% CategoriesMulti.AjaxCheckboxList()
    .Multiselect()
    .Url(Page.Url().Action("GetCategories", "Data")); %>
<awe:Ocon runat="server" ID="CategoriesMulti" />

<% AllMealsMulti.AjaxCheckboxList()
    .Multiselect(o => o.NoSelectClose())
    .Parent(CategoriesMulti.ClientID, "categories")
    .Url(Page.Url().Action("GetMeals", "Data")); %>
<awe:Ocon runat="server" ID="AllMealsMulti" />

Multiselect with custom item



defining custom rendering functions for the dropdown list item and selected caption
AjaxCheckboxListDemo.aspx
<% MealsMultiImg.AjaxCheckboxList()
    .Value(new[] { Db.Meals[0].Id, Db.Meals[2].Id, Db.Meals[14].Id })
    .Multiselect(o => o.ItemFunc("site.imgItem").CaptionFunc("aweUtils.imgCaption").NoSelectClose())
    .Url(Page.Url().Action("GetMealsImg", "Data")); %>
<awe:Ocon runat="server" ID="MealsMultiImg" />
Awesome/DataController.cs
public ActionResult GetMealsImg()
{
    var url = Url.Content(DemoUtils.MealsUrl);
    var items = Db.Meals
        .Select(o => new MealDisplay(o.Id, o.Name, url + o.Name + ".jpg"));
    return Json(items);
}

Multiselect Combo

can add values not present in the select list
AjaxCheckboxListDemo.aspx
<% AllMealsMultiCombo.AjaxCheckboxList()
    .Multiselect(o => o.NoSelectClose().Combo())
    .DataFunc("aweUtils.getItems(meals)"); %>
<awe:Ocon runat="server" ID="AllMealsMultiCombo" />
