Customize knockout patterns

I have a page that requires jQuery.tmpl but I want to use knockout templates for

data-bind="foreach: Comments"

attribute. Since I have included jQuery.tmpl, the legacy templating template is disabled; is there a way i can force the native functionality?

thank

You cannot use foreach

or other control flow bindings in the jQuery.tmpl template.

However, if you want to call a named template and force it to use its own templating engine, then you would do something like:



<div data-bind="template: { name: 'itemsTmpl', templateEngine: new ko.nativeTemplateEngine() }">
</div>

​<script id="itemsTmpl" type="text/html">
    <ul data-bind="foreach: items">
        <li data-bind="text: $data"></li>
    </ul>
</script>

or cache a copy of the built-in templating engine ( new ko.nativeTemplateEngine()

) in a variable.
