Hi Miriam Brockmann,

I am populating the combobox with jason values as below using web api odata service,

this._roadClass = new comboBox({

labelAttr: "queryType",

labelType: 'text',

placeHolder: "Select Boundary",

searchAttr: "queryType",

autoWidth: true,

onChange: lang.hitch(this, this._onroadClassSelected)

}, this.roadClassNode);

In the same way i am populating the dijit/Multiselect, but i am not getting, what is wrong here?

Hi Sandanandachar!

I've doing a little research about populating a dijit.form MultiSelect and find this Post:

multiselect widget not populating

With a ComboBox you can use a store to fill up, but that won't work when you use a

MultiSelect. It's like a <SELECT> - Element, that must be filled with <OPTION> - nodes.

So you have to do with yours. In the Link mentioned above, there are two good Examples how to do that.

Here's the Link to the documentation :

dijit.form.MultiSelect — The Dojo Toolkit - Reference Guide

Hope this might help you!
