Dropdownlist Select Event not recognized

[Tim]

Hi there,

I am continuing to eval the kendo grid for purchase and seeing if I can get it working in my application which is using MVC 4 and kendo 2013.1.319. 

While swapping in the dropdown I am running into an error for only certain records where the Select Event function on the dropdown is not recognized; even though it is present in the javascript. Its weird because it works for most records that visit the details page and once in awhile it breaks and I can't figure out why. Any ideas?

For example:

I am binding this list with a selectlist in the controller and the values are properly set. there is a full list and the Id is there in the list.

//select list on the viewmodel
pvModel.CostCenterList = new SelectList(_setupBiz.GetNonOverheadCostCenters(), "Key", "Value",pvModel.CostCenterId);

I have this DDL on the .cshtml page

                    @(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
                        .Name("CostCenter")
                        .OptionLabel("Pick a costcenter...")
                        .BindTo(Model.CostCenterList)
                        .Events(e=>e.Select("CostCenterSelect"))
                        )

and this script in my <scripts> section

    function CostCenterSelect(e) {       
        var costCenter = this.dataItem(e.item.index());
        if (costCenter.Value > 0) {
//stuff happens
        }
        else {
//hide a bunch of buttons        }
    };

It turns out there was a bad character in one of the standard input fields on the page. I think this broke Javascript and the dropdown was the first item on the page so when it tried to fire the event it didn't work.

This issue has been resolved.
