[Solved] Drop Down List Datasource

[Markus]

Hi

I cannot get my Dropdown List as a filter to work.

http://dojo.telerik.com/ijigO

In above example I can see the "function cityFilter" which has the dataSource field called "cities". If I change "cities" to anything else the example will fail.

I console.log'ed the data which is loaded into the grid, I cannot make any sense how this "cities" datasource comes to be or how I can replicate it with my own data.

Help much appreciated

Hello Markus,

The "cities" array is loaded from the linked "people.js" script just after the "body" tag in the provided example. For your convenience I created new example where the content of this script is directly loaded on the page:

Also for more information about the dropDownList widget and how to bind data to it you can check the following help article:
