Here is a simplified version of my code (there is nothing in the <table>):
And everything works fine, except that when I use the dropdown to change the value, it never changes in the datasource. My change even never fired (I cut it out of here) and if I try to update, the field edited by the dropdown is not changed. THe other fields (there are text fields, number fields, etc. in the none abbreviated code) all fire the change event and show up in the datasource. Any idea why this isn't changing anything?
var _manu = [{"text":"Acme","value":1},{"text":"Other","value":2}];function getManufacturerName(id) { for (var i = 0; i < _manu.length; i++) { if (_manu[i].value == id) { return _manu[i].text; } } return ''; }gridDataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({ batch: true, transport: { read: { url: 'myUrl' }, }, schema: { model: { id:"ItemId", fields: { ManuId: { type: "number" } } } } });var kendoGrid = gridObj.kendoGrid({ dataSource: gridDataSource, selectable: "row", editable: true, columns: [ { field: "ManuId", title: "Manufacturer", editor: manufacturerDropDownEditor, template:"#= getManufacturerName(ManufacturerId) #" } ] }).data('kendoGrid');function manufacturerDropDownEditor(container, options) { $('<input data-bind="value:' + options.field + '"/>') .appendTo(container) .kendoDropDownList({ dataTextField: "text", dataValueField: "value", dataSource: _manu }); }And everything works fine, except that when I use the dropdown to change the value, it never changes in the datasource. My change even never fired (I cut it out of here) and if I try to update, the field edited by the dropdown is not changed.

Turns out that a "number" field cannot handle 'null', so make sure you send any 'null' values a different value like -1 or 0 - other wise KendoGrid with and Editor will appear to work, but not actually do anything (a console message would be nice).
