Answer 1

you can try this

   $("#youbuttonID").bind("click", function() {
       $("#Details").data("kendoWindow").open();
   });

to load conent from use

@(Html.Kendo().Window().Name("Details")
    .Title("Customer Details")
    .Visible(false)
    .Modal(true)
    .Draggable(true)
    .LoadContentFrom("brand", "edit") 
    .Width(300)

You need to get hold of the window object, set its url and pass in the query string to the url property. This works for me:

        var window = $("#Details").data("kendoWindow");
        window.refresh({
            url: '/YourController/YourAction/......',

        });
        window.open().center();

Additionally, you can pass in some data to the action as well:

        window.refresh({
            url: '/YourController/YourAction/......',
            data: { id: 10, enterpriseId: 88}

        });

Or you copuld just have a function to create the window on the fly and set it's content url with some parameter:

    function createKendoWindow(contentUrl) {
        $(document.body).append('<div id="Window"></div>');
        $('#Window').kendoWindow({
            title: "Log In",
            modal: true,
            resizable: false,
            width: 400,
            content: contentUrl,
            visible: false,
            minHeight: 350,
            animation: {
                open: {
                    effects: "expandVertical",
                    duration: 1000
                },
            },
            close: function () {
                setTimeout(function () {
                    $('#Window').kendoWindow('destroy');
                }, 200);
            }
        }).html('<img src="761.gif" />').data('kendoWindow').center().open();
    }

Answer 3

You can use LoadContentFrom and specify Action and Controller. The action will have its own View attached to it. See here for details.
