Saving Kendo CheckBoxFor checked values separated by comma

[RJ]

I have three checkboxes defined as below in my cshtml file:


            @(Html.Kendo().CheckBoxFor(e => e.Fruit)
                 .Name("FruitApple")
                 .Label("Apple"))
              <br />
            @(Html.Kendo().CheckBoxFor(e => e.Fruit)
                  .Name("FruitBanana")
                  .Label("Banana"))
               <br />
            @(Html.Kendo().CheckBoxFor(e => e.Fruit)
                  .Name("FruitCherry")
                  .Label("Cherry"))


Where Fruit is the property which is defined in my model class as below:  

       public string Fruit { get; set; }

I want all the checked checkboxes label text to be separated by comma and assigned as string value to my property 'Fruit'. 
For eg: If checkbox for Apple and Cherry is checked. I want to assign Fruit as Apple, Cherry.

But when I run my code, property Fruit is empty.  
  
How can I get this behavior?  
  
Thanks!

Hello RJ,

The CheckBoxFor method provides a styled alternative to the Html.CheckBoxFor checkbox. Can you provide the code that works in your scenario with Html.CheckBoxFor (without using the Kendo UI extensions)? If it works with the standard extension, it should work with the Kendo UI ones.
