Hi there,

I think i have my syntax on render wrong as it fails. I am migrating
from v1 to v2..

This is inside controller

this.render({ view: "views/calendar/calendar", html: "#calendar-
layer" })

and it fails with Error: Object doesn't support this property or
method

so i tried the jquery way and it works.. what am i doing wrong..

$("#calendar-layer").html('views/calendar/calendar', { data: {} });

I would appreciate any info anybody has...

I think i have the syntax correct ...

You can do this,

$("#calendar-layer").html( this.view('calendar/calendar', { data: {} }) );

You can also try this if you want to reference an element that is a child of the controller element (useful if you're using the class attribute to tag the element):

this.find("#calendar-layer").html( this.view('calendar/calendar', { data: {} }) );

Hi Alexandre,

documentation i am supposed to be able to do the following and its the
recommended way of rendering but it fails with the errorr

this.render({ view: "views/calendar/calendar", html: "#calendar-
layer" })
