        var actionsheet = $('#actionsheet').kendoActionSheet({
        title:'Select item',
        items:[
            {
              text: 'Edit Item',
              iconClass: 'k-icon k-i-edit',
              click: onClick
            },
            {
              text: 'Add to Favorites',
              iconClass: 'k-icon k-i-heart',
              click: onClick
            },
            {
              text: 'Upload New',
              iconClass: 'k-icon k-i-upload',
              click: onClick
            },

              iconClass: 'k-icon k-i-cancel',
              group: 'bottom',
              click: onClick
