I am trying to display a dropdownlist in the grid? - html

Question

I am trying to display a dropdownlist in the grid but the dropdown does not appear when it is clicked. Instead of seeing the "text" of the dropdown that corresponds to the numeric "value" (an enumeration) I am only seeing a "textbox" where the dropdownlist should appear. Another odd behavior happens when I randomly click on the grid the dropdown will appear intermittently.

#(Html.Kendo().Grid()
