I'm trying to populate a RadComboBox but I'm getting this error and I don't know why.

My RadComboBox:

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="regTypeComboBox" runat="server" Width="305" Skin="Telerik" OnClientLoad="OnClientLoadHandler" />

My js:

function OnClientLoadHandler(sender) {
    var combo;
    combo = sender;

    var serviceUrl = "myUrl";

    var paramData = {

    };

    $.ajax({
        type: 'GET',
        url: serviceUrl,
        contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
        crossDomain: true,
        data: JSON.stringify(paramData),
        dataType: 'json',
        success: function (response) {
            var listData = response.listData;
            $.each(listData, function (index, element) {
                var name, id;
                name = element.NAME;
                id = element.ID;
                var comboItem = new Telerik.Web.UI.RadComboBoxItem();
                comboItem.set_text(name); // --> SyntaxError: illegal character

                //comboItem.set_text("name"); // --> also SyntaxError: illegal character

                //comboItem.set_text(""); // --> also SyntaxError: illegal character
            });

},
        error: function () {
            alert("error");
        }
    });
}

 

It is pretty simple, but I don't know why it gives this error.

Any ideas? Thanks

Hello Larissa,

We tested your scenario, but were unable to reproduce the illegal character exception. I attached a sample project, which contains a RadComboBox bound with Web API, could you please try reproducing the error in it and post your modifications for further review?
