my code is here:

        $(document).ready(function () {

            var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
                transport: {
                    read: {
                        type: "POST",
                        url: "WebService/listing.php",
                        contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',

                    }
                }
            });

            dataSource.bind("change", function () {
                $("#content").html(kendo.render(template, dataSource.view()));

You could try to use the changefunction of the dataSource directly:

var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
    transport: {
        read: {
            type: "POST",
            url: "WebService/listing.php",
            contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
            datatype: "json"
        }
    },
    change: function() {
        $("#content").html(kendo.render(template, this.view()));
    }
});

Just some things to consider:

I'm assuming your JSON is correct

You're sure you use POST to get the data

your template is as well defined correctly

You're calling dataSource.read() AFTER the data is loaded (to make sure you're doing this, call read() within $(document).ready(function(){dataSource.read();}); and define the dataSource itself first

I guess the last point is the most crucial ;)

That's all I am doing, so if it doesn't work that way there might be some mistake in the data format itself or in the template definition. Anything like console errors?

Cheers
