If I try to get a value from a static DropDownList, <asp:listitem> works.
I would like to set the selected item in the combo box. It is working, If the dropdownstyle is dropdownlist. But not working, If the dropdownstyle is dropdown. How to make it work when the style is dropdown?
View 1 RepliesI have a DropDownList that pulls values from a table in sql server. I want the dropdownlist to populate the list of values based on a selection by the user but also display the contents of the rest of my table in case they need to change something. For ex:
ddl1 has values of: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 user selects 5, so the value displayed in ddl2 is five, but if you exand the ddl2 you will also see the values of one, two, three, four...
This is the code in my load event...
If Not IsPostBack Then
result = dal.dbConnect(DAL.dbType.SqlServer, ConfigurationManager.AppSetting("SQLServerConnection"))

I have two dropdownlist, one is State and one is City. When a State is selected, the City dropdownlist becomes populated. At that point you can select a city, however if you select a city and go back and select a different state, the city dropdownlist is populated by the cities for both states. How do I get it clear the cities for the first state?

I have a repeater with a dropdownlist in it. When a user changes its index, I would like a label to change its value. (the ddlSizes values come from a MySQL DB)

I have to hidden buttons on my page that I can trigger using JavaScript (__dopostback...). I also have a list of object on my page and a dropdownlist giving the user the possibility to sort those objects on the page. My code checks the current value of the dropdownlist on Databind of the list and applies the chosen sort method to the list. The first button is triggered when the user has selected another sort method from the list.
The second button is triggered when the user adds a new item to the list. Sortmethod "sort2" should be set automatically in the dropdownlist if this happens. So when the second button has been clicked, I need to set the selected item of the dropdownlist dynamically so I can check the value of the selected value later in the DataBind method of the dropdownlist and know what sort method should be applied.
I don't succeed in changing the selected value dynamically. I'm using to controls: First is the objects.vb and the second is the ObjectContainer.vb. Objects.vb contains the two buttons, the dropdownlist and an instance of the objectcontainer. The objectcontainer contains the list with objects that needs to be sorted based on the value selected in the objects control.
Objects.vb:
Private sortMethod As DropdownList
Private container as ObjectContainer
Protected Overrides Sub OnInit(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MyBase.OnInit(e)
EnsureChildControls()
End Sub

I have a autocomplete dropdownlist(ddl) in my app. When ever I click on the ddl and start typing to find the item I am looking for in the ddl. The ddl is expanded to show all the orders when typing. After I press the enter key to go out and get the order information for that order the Order number in the ddl is missing but here is the weird part. When I don't have the ddl expanded but still have focus on the ddl. When I find the order I need and press enter. The order number is showing in the ddl as the selected one after it has loaded up the order information.
View 6 RepliesI have a bit of a tricky scenario. It consists of some partial problems for which I have individually found solutions, but I couldn't find anything that makes it all work together smoothly.
-Upon selecting an item in a datagrid, a new page loads with the details regarding that entity.
-The entity represents a product that can have any amount of variants (such as a t-shirt's color or size)
-I dynamically add dropdownlists to this detail-page that represent these variants (there can be any amount of variants, and each variant can have any amount of different values, each value or combination or values from different variants representing a unique product entity)
-Upon selecting a different variant in a dropdown, a delegate is called that will change the session variable to the productId associated with the selected variant and a postback is fired that will reload the page with new data based on this productId
The problem: the postback is fired BEFORE the dropdownlist's (OnSelectedIndexChanged) delegate is called. Since this delegate defines the productId in the session, the new to-be-used productId isn't known at the time of postback.
Result: loading the correct data in the page is always delayed by one postback. Each time I change the selected index of any of the dropdowns, the page is loaded with data based on the session variable that the PREVIOUS OnSelectedIndexChanged delegate of the dropdown set.
I have a LoadData() method that sets the values of all textboxes, fields, labels etc. based on the productId stored in the current session. This method is called on Page_Load.
Private Property CurrentProduct As Product
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
LoadData()
[Code] .....
It seems that I haven't been completely clear on what does and doesn't apply to this scenario regarding Page Lifecycle.
1) My dropdownlists are added dynamically, which works fine on the first page_load.
2) The content of the dropdownlists is defined by what entity's details i'm loading on the page.
3) What entity's details I'm loading on the page is at first(not-postback) defined by the product I selected in a gridview in the previous page.
4) At postback, this entity is based on a sessionvariable containing the id of the entity.
5) This session variable is defined by what item in the dropdownlist I select.
6) This dropdownlist dissapears after postback since it's not defined on the page, but dynamically. So is the event.
So my guess would go towards some clientside script that stored the selected value before postback, but then I would be clueless on how to get that variable to the server since the logic that retrieves the entity is in the business logic layer which is far away from this page..
I have a window having 2 dropdowmlists(schemename-SN and propertyno-PN) , one chkbox ,one "VIEW" button.SN has options "all" with value=0 and many other options with respctive values.Now,i want the code should behaves as follows:
1.0n window onload, SN must b visible bt PN nt.
2.if i select SN other thn All...the PN shud b visible and if i select "All" ,PN hides.
3.when check box is checked- PN hides,and if it is unchecked- PN visible..
Important:-This whole ddl n chk box are in updatable panel,button is nt in that.I want a browser compatible code so javascript can't b used directly(cz they give problem in mozzila and chrome).Right now, i have done this JavaScript and its is working fine.
function window.onload()
{
DisableProperty();
}
[code]....
but this code is not browser compatible.here onload,onkeyup and onclick functions are used , but they dont work in other browsers except internet explorer.
I have found a couple of examples on the internet to do this but really struggling to get it working in VB. (Tried a converter but had mixed results) I need the selection options of a Dropdownlist to be populated based upon the differing values in the first dropdown list.
Can anyone help with a releativley simple example in VB? Not fussed if the values are "hard coded" in the script. Or a SQL bit that pulls the data from a table

I'm building a data entry interface and have successfully bound the columns that have reference tables for their data using DropDownList so the user selects from the pre-configured values.
My problem now is that I don't want the first value to be selected by default, I need to force the user to select a value from the list to avoid errors where they didn't pick that field and by default a value was assigned.
Is there a more elegant way of doing this than to add code to include an empty value at the top of the list after I get it from the database and before i pass it to the SelectList constructor in my controller class?
