label String|Function|Object (default: null)

    Adds a label before the input. If the input has no id attribute, a generated id will be assigned. The string and the function parameters are setting the inner HTML of the label.

    Example - create a label from a string

    Open In Dojo
    <select id="customers"></select>
    <script>
    $("#customers").kendoMultiSelect({
        dataTextField: "ContactName",
        dataValueField: "CustomerID",
        dataSource: {
            type: "odata",
            transport: {
                read: "https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/service/Northwind.svc/Customers"
            },
            group: { field: "Country" }
        },
      label: "Customers"
    });
    </script>

    The function context (available through the keyword this) will be set to the widget instance.

    Example - create a label from a function

    Open In Dojo
    <select id="customers"></select>
    <script>
    $("#customers").kendoMultiSelect({
        dataTextField: "ContactName",
        dataValueField: "CustomerID",
        dataSource: {
            type: "odata",
            transport: {
                read: "https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/service/Northwind.svc/Customers"
            },
            group: { field: "Country" }
        },
      label: function() {
          return "Customers";
      }
    });
    </script>
