title: Set value as selected in multiselect dropdown in knockout - The knockout way
body: <p>I have a multi-select dropdown.I am binding a object to that .Just to get multiple values out of the selection.I am able to get the values and process it.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the sample of - how i am loading the multi-select control in my page </p>
  
  <p><a href="http://jsfiddle.net/Hsakarp/d5j0zogz/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/Hsakarp/d5j0zogz/</a></p>
  
  <pre><code>var viewModel = {
    optionValues: [{name: "name1", Id: 1, fullname: "Development"},{name: "name2", Id: 2, fullname: "Development"},{name: "name3", Id: 3, fullname: "Development"}],
  
      multipleSelectedOptionValues: ko.observable(),
  };
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when i load the page again for edit, i want to set the values as selected values.I have tried with Jquery - <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6966260/jquery-multiselect-set-a-value-as-selected-in-the-multiselect-dropdown">JQuery multiselect - Set a value as selected in the multiselect dropdown</a></p>
  
  <p>Can someone show me how to do it with Knockout itself?</p>
