        comboBoxData = comboBoxData.Replace("name=\"" + tag + propertyName + "-input\"", "name=\"" + propertyNameId + "\"");

Why are you overriding the name of the combobox so brutally? What is the target value and why you are not relying on setting it via Name() — Atanas Korchev
actually i am implementing this one for the framework. its not giving any problem. the only problem Kendo autocomplete not providing DataValue field. — Rudresha Parameshappa

This may be outdated, have you tried something like autocomplete[0].value?
