<script type="text/javascript">

    $(function () {
        $("#ddl").shieldDropDown({
            dataSource: {
			    data: countries
		    },
		    textTemplate: "{name}",
		    valueTemplate: "{code}",
            events: {
                change: function(e) {
                    alert("change event");
