Trigger change event manually

[Jacob]

Hello,

jQuery gives you the ability to trigger the change event manually.

Is this also possible for a kend drop down list? Right after my document ready a change event should be fired.

Regards,
Jacob

Hello,

If you need to trigger a widget event, then you can use the corresponding trigger method. Here is an example showing how to use it:

var dropdownlist = $("#id").data("kendoDropDownList");

dropdownlist.trigger("change"); //this will trigger change event
