Hello,

I am trying to understan how syncronization in data binding and afterwards the tracking of changed values works. Therefore I have 2 connected questions

Question 1 :  In kendo ui documentation it says that "When the end-user changes the value of the DOM element (or widget) the bound View-Model value is updated. If the View-Model value is updated from code the value of the bound DOM element (or widget) is updated visually."I couldn't find how the second section (in bold) works.

I tried to writedevicenoValue = "444444";

to check if the DOM element is changing but it didn't work. How can I change it from the javascript side (ofcourse without the standart jquery option)

html code is :

<li>
<label>Device No
<input type="text" value="" id="device_no" data-value-update="keyup" data-bind="value: devicenoValue"/>
</label>
</li>

JS code is :

var settings = kendo.observable({

devicenoValue: "444444"
});

kendo.bind($("#device_no"), settings);



Question 2 : I need to know which element was changed in the DOM. How can I find this? I tried data-value-update="keyup" but couldn't findout how to use it for this purpose

Hi,

It seems your first question was answered in stackoverflow. You can use the change event of the DOM element to see what changed:

<input data-bind="events: {change: onChange}">

var viewModel = kendo.observable({
   onChange: function(e) {
       var target = e.target; // the DOM element which triggered the event (changed)
   }
});
