    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){
