[Solved] make combobox empty after return from controller

[Rahul]

I have a kendo combobox

@(Html.Kendo().ComboBox()
 .Name("ddSystems")
.Filter("contains")
.Placeholder("-- Select --")
.BindTo((IEnumerable)ViewBag.systemList) )

Onchange, a textbox is loaded in ajax. A submit button posts the textbox value and combobox value to the controller. When I get back to the view, I need ddSystems to be reset to empty.
I used

$('#ddSystems').data('kendoComboBox').value(null)

and

$('#ddSystems').data('kendoComboBox').text('')

but it always retains the previously selected value. Since I use ajax, this will not display the textbox and I am stuck. Please help.

Hi,

Setting the value to null should reset the combobox. Here is a live demo: http://trykendoui.telerik.com/@korchev/ORuS
