Im currently struggeling with this problem. I have created a artical document type. In this document type i have created an custom data type named Employee picker which displays all the employees in a dropdown. The employee’s are created by an employee document type and are located in a employee folder. I want to create a dropdown on my masterpage because i want to create a search so i can return all the articals by the selected author.

Now to the problem. When i loop through my authors i only return there ID and i'm getting a lot of emtey spaces.

@if(Model != null) { var employee = Library.NodeById(Model.author); var node = Library.NodeById(1069);

<table>
    <tr>
        <td>Author: </td>
        <td><select class="myList">
        <option>
        @foreach(var item in node.Descendants().Where("Visible"))
        {
           <option value="@item.pageId">@item.author</option>
        }
        </option>
        </select></td>
    </tr>

</table>

}
