Problems Binding CallBack Json Data

[Nicole]

Hi,

I'm attempting to create the kendoComboBox on the client side with data passed into a callback javascript method. The control is created, but there seems to be a problem with the databinding. When the page renders, I see the combobox placeholder value, BUT when I click the down arrow, or try to type in the field for autocomplete/filtering nothing happens.

For example I have data coming back from my ajax call like

{"bloomberg": [
        {"id": "1", "account": "my institution bank", "ticker": "BOND_TO_EQY_TICKER"},      

 ]
},
{
"intex": [
        {"id": "1", "type": "RMBS", "category": "CashFlows"},              {"id": "2", "type": "ABS", "category": "CashFlows"} ]
}

initializecontrols = function (data) { 
try 
        { 
            $("#tpgInput").kendoComboBox({                
                dataSource: { 
                    data: data.bloomberg, 
                    type: "json"
                },
                select: onComboBoxSelect,
                dataTextField: "account", 
                dataValueField: "id", 
                placeholder: "Select Bloomberg Account ...", 
                // define custom template 
                template: '<dl>' + 
                              '<dd><strong>Account Name:</strong> ${ data.account }</dd>' +
                              '<dd><strong>Ticker:</strong> ${data.ticker} ' +
                          '</dl>', 
                animation: {
                    open: {
                        effects: "fadeIn",
                        duration: 300
                        show: true 
                    } 
                } 
            }); 
        } 
        catch (err) {
            alert(err.message); 
        } 

When i step through the code I see the data. I'm hoping you can give me some insight into 

what I might be doing wrong.

I was missing a reference to jquery.min.js .. I thought my references to jquery-1.8.2.min.js would be sufficient. obviously that's not the case.
