Update a Model Field with the RangeSlider

Environment

Product Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC RangeSlider
Progress Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC version 2024.4.1112

Description

When submitting a form, how can I update a model field with the RangeSlider's start and end values?

Solution

The RangeSlider renders two hidden inputs behind the scene.

This behavior helps you consume and process a model property that holds an array of two numbers—start and end.

  1. Add a field of type double[] in the view model.
  2. Bind the RangeSlider to the field.
public class OrderViewModel
{
    public int OrderID { get; set; }

    public double[] Products { get; set; }
}
public ActionResult Index()
{
    OrderViewModel model = new OrderViewModel() 
    { 
        OrderID = 1, 
        Products = new double[] { 2, 4 } 
    };

    return View(model);
}

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Submit(OrderViewModel model)
{
    // model.Products contains the updated values

    return View("Success");
}
@model MyApp.Models.OrderViewModel

@using (Html.BeginForm("Submit", "Home"))
{
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.OrderID)
    @(Html.Kendo().RangeSliderFor(model => model.Products))
    <br />
    <input type="submit"  value="Submit" />
}
