Bind values to dropdown list using razor syntax

My Development Enviorment

Using Umbraco : Version 6.1.5

MVC with Razor

And it have also made the necessary changes in config file for the MVC.

Steps that I followed

Step 1

I went to the developer section and added a custom datatypes called "cleaningtypes" with the property editor set to "Multiple Textstring".

Step 2

I then went into Document Types and then added a new Document Type named "cleaning" and then went on to create a property named "text" with type set as "cleaningtypes"

Step 3

I then went into Content and then added had some values into the fields that I have created.

Step 4

Under the Templates section I went to the "cleaning" template added the following code to check if would receive the values that I just added.

@Umbraco.Field("text")

Step 5

And it works as I expected. I get all the values that I inserted.

Step 6

Now I wanted to bind these values into a dropdown list. So i edited the code with the following statments.

<select>

@foreach (var item in Model.text){

<option>@item.InnerText</option>

}

</select>

Step 7

And when I run the website, I get an error.

I look forward for your valuable help and suggestions.

Hi Libin, I think you have posted the perfect description!

I think you only need to change your foreach to:
```
@foreach (var item in CurrentPage.text){
```
