Kendo MVVM and binding or extending custom events

Question

I have a ComboBox in my page and I want to bind keypress event to my Kendo ComboBox when the cliend writes down any letter.

As I understand kendo doesn\'t have any k

Answer 1

You can capture the keydown event of all ComboBox controls using the following code:

kendo.ui.ComboBox.fn._keydown = function(e) {
    if (e.which == 13) {
        alert("key pressed!");
    }
};

This also works with the DropDownList widget that generally doesn't support the keypress events.
