I'm trying to set a default value in Kendo Grid edit popup. It's not showing. I tried setting the value with Jquery and model default value also but nothing works.

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.CountryCode, new { style="width:25px",@value="+94" })

Try this;

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.UserName, new { style = "width:25px", @Value = "+94" })

Letter V should be in upper-case in @Value = "+94" .

Instead giving @Html.TextBoxFor value with @value="+94" as shown in your question just put

value "+94" in CountryCode property from controller side,this problem you are getting because

you are using strongly typed TextBox here.

@chamara have you tried using .DefaultValue() in your grid ? This works for me.

Like this?

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)
.Name("grid")
.Columns(columns =>
{

    columns.Bound(p => p.UserName);

})
    .ToolBar(toolbar => toolbar.Create().Text("Add"))
    .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp).TemplateName("template"))
.DataSource(dataSource => dataSource
    .Ajax()
    .Model(model =>
        {
            model.Id(p => p.ID);
            model.Field(f => f.UserName).DefaultValue("+94");
        })
        .Read(read => read.Action(" ", " "))
        .Create(update => update.Action(" ", " "))
        .Update(update => update.Action(" ", " "))
        .Destroy(update => update.Action(" ", " "))
))

The defaultValue should be visible in your pop up.

The DefaultValue works only for static default values. But what to do if one likes to have dynamic default values, e.g. when the user selects a value from a DropDownList. I have no idea so far.
