Setting selectedIndex:-1 doesn't prevent the OnSelect event from being activated

[mtbvfrMember]

Hi,

The OnSelect event, for the Clients DropDownList, sets the Data Source for the Sites DropDownList.

The first time a Client is selected, the OnSelect event is NOT activated for the Sites DropDownList. This is OK.

After selecting the first Site (which sets selectedIndex to 0) and then selecting a different Client, the OnSelect event IS activated for the Sites DropDownList even though the “selectedIndex” Property has been set to “-1” when refreshing the Data Source. This is NOT OK.

Is this behaviour correct?

I am now doing the following to circumvent this problem.

$(‘#divDdlSites’).off(‘select’,fnDivDdlSitesSelect);
$(“#divDdlSites”).jqxDropDownList({disabled:false,selectedIndex:-1,source:objJqxDataAdapter});
$(‘#divDdlSites’).on(‘select’,fnDivDdlSitesSelect);

Is this the best and/or most efficient way to prevent the OnSelect event from being activated in this circumstance?

Thank you, Michael.

Hi,

When there is a selection change, through the API or through the UI, the ‘select’ event(we do not have OnSelect event) will be raised. That behavior is correct and works as expected.
