Lets review a new way to pass parameter to Kendo Dropdownlist. This option is straightforward, when you have a parameter to invoke and nothing else to be processed while doing this.
Below is a sample code which will load a Kendo DropDownList with a defined parameter.
The above can be achieved as below too. Both the methods do the same thing, except in the method below, we can demand to do some extra steps and retrieve value to be passed. This might come in handy, when you want to read a control, which will not be loaded with data, while loading this control. There are few other instances, where this will be helpful. Once you have the parameter, you just have to invoke a force read for this drop down and the results will show up.
The sample code to do the same is given below....
