title: How to retrieve all data of a kendo ui dropdown list?
body: <p>I want to pull all data of a kendo dropdown list. I create dropdown with this code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#dropDownList").kendoDropDownList({
  
      dataTextField: "field",
      autoBind: true,
      dataSource: {
          transport: {
              type: "POST",
              read: {
                  url: "http://abc.com",
                  contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                  dataType: "json"
              }
          }
      },
      select: onSelect
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>};</p>
  
  <p>Then I tried to pull data with using</p>
  
  <pre><code>var data = $("#dropDownList").data("kendoDropDownList").val();
  var values = [];
  for (var item in data) {
      values.push(this.item);
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it didn't work. Any idea how can I do? Thanks in advance.</p>
