HTML Select DropDown portion not updated

[Cole]

I have a page where I have a standard HTML Select element that is decorated using the RadFormDecorator.  I am dynamically updating the options in the list via javascript and making an asp.net ajax call to a webservice that has a call back that in turn clears out the select's options list and re-populates it.  The problem is that the options are being updated, but the portion of the drop down that is displayed and populated from the RadFormDecorator is not updated.  I have attached the dcode that shows how I am updating the control.  Any help in figuring out what I need to do to get the <ul> portion that is created by the radformdecorator would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello Jerome,

 There is a additional thing that should be done for decorated selects. You should call the FormDecorator's updateSelect client-side method. This method should be executed when the select element has been populated. Please, find attached a sample page demonstrating this.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
