Kendo dropdown list cascade event can't be bound to a function

[Burgan]

//*******************WORKS*************************

$("#dropdownlist").kendoDropDownList({

    cascade: alert("works")

});

 

 

//*******************DOES NOT WORK**************

$("#dropdownlist").kendoDropDownList({

    cascade: function(){

        alert("Does not work");

    },

});

The cascade event of the kendo dropdown works when there is a single line of code in it,  but when I try to bind a function to the cascade event doesn't trigger, is there a problem in my syntax.

I also made a working demostration of the problem in JSFiddle

Hi Doruk,

Actually in the first DropDownList the cascade event handler is not attached correctly. alert("works") is executed when the JavaScript parser passes through this line of code, not when the cascade event is raised.

The second syntax is the correct one, but the problem derives from the Kendo UI version which is used in the current implementation. For your convenience I prepared a JS Bin example.

As a conclusion, please update to the latest Kendo UI version and let me know if this solved the issue.

Hi Dimitrev,

There was a problem with the js versions in my project, updating all to the same version solved it.
Thanks for the quick reply.
