I am loading a dropdownlist from a datasource but wish to trigger another action when the first item is selected but I do not seem to be able to get Kendo to trigger a change event?
The change fires OK when I actually select another item (as expected) but I would like an initial change event to be fired.
Leaving out the index it does load OK and appear to select the first item OK but I do not get any event.
Any ideas on how this can be done?

Hello John,
All the best,

The described behavior is expected as all HTML inputs elements does not raise change event when its value is set with JavaScript. You can achieve your goal with wiring the change event of the DataSource and do the required stuff:
var dropdownlist = $("#ddl").kendoDropDownList({....}).data("kendoDropDownList");dropdownlist.dataSource.one("change", function() {//event handled will be called only once.});Georgi Krustev
