how to get the value of a kendoui dropdown list selected value in a listview
- by user1568738
am having Some kendoui listviews which consists of kendoui dropdown lists and i want to get those dropdown list selected values. To do this am trying,
$("#cnty1").val();
and here is my dropdownlist,i.e., list of countries coming from Database table,
<input select STYLE="width:90px;height:auto" id ="cnty1" data-bind="value:cnty1"
name="cnty1" data-type="string" data-text-field="cnty"
data-value-field="cntyid" data-source="sourcedata1" class="k-d"
data-role="dropdownlist" />
<span data-for="cnty1" class="k-invalid-msg"></span>
here cnty1 is the id of the dropdown list, but am not getting the value instead am getting "id" of the slected value but not the selected value.
And also if the value is not selected am getting the first value id by using $("#cnty1").val();
So, please suggest me a solution so that,
1) I should get only the Selected value and
2) Value of the dropdown list Only if the user selects a value from the list, but don't get the value of the list without selecting.
