I'm trying to write a binding handler that simplifies the usage of select tag with objects.
ko.bindingHandlers.objectSelect = {
init: function(element, valueAccessor, allBindingsAccessor) {
var interceptor = ko.computed({
read: function() {
return valueAccessor()[allBindingsAccessor().optionsValue]();
},
write: function(value) {
valueAccessor()[allBindingsAccessor().optionsValue](value);
}
});
ko.applyBindingsToNode(element, {
value: interceptor
});
}
};
In this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/p8dn2d2n/2/ if you run it, the selects start cleaned, even when using valueAllowUnset.
If you comment the second select, everything works as expected.
<select data-bind="
value: current().val.id,
valueAllowUnset: true,
options: options,
optionsValue: 'id',
optionsText: 'name',
optionsCaption: ' '">
</select>
<!-- Problem here -->
<select data-bind="
objectSelect: current().val,
valueAllowUnset: true,
options: options,
optionsValue: 'id',
optionsText: 'name',
optionsCaption: ' '">
</select>
<p><span data-bind="text: current().val.id" /></p>
<div>
<button data-bind="click: click">New</button>
</div>
What's wrong I'm doing?
