title: Set Kendo Grid POPUP editor values using Jquery
body: <p>I'm using Kendo Grid with POPUP editing. </p>
  
  <p>On edit POPup I'm having a textbox like below.</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Html.TextBoxFor(model =&gt; model.FirstName, new { style = "width:175px" }) 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then I set this textbox value using Jquery</p>
  
  <pre><code> $("#FirstName").val("my name");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I submit the popup to save the values it does not pass these values to controller. However, if I type a value on the textbox, then it works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Why is it not working with the values set through Jquery? </p>
