How can I add a new item in a Kendo DropDownlist, if it doesn't exist in the datasource?
Example: the Kendo DropDownlist shows some predefined values, but the user should also be able to add a new item by writing in an input text.
You can use the add()
method of the Kendo datasource
to add new items:
var ddl = $("#dropDownListID").data("kendoDropDownList");
var dataSource = ddl.dataSource.add({
"text": "new Item",
"value": 1000});
