Where can I get a list of all countries/cities to populate a listbox?
I'm trying to fill my dropdownlist with all world countries from windows, is there any way to make my dropdownlist get all countries from windows?
Or do anybody have a XML with all the list so I can use it?
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 trying to write a program that selects an item (Area Code) from a combobox and this list gets the city that was associated with this area code (another comnbobox list)

I am new to Ajax and have a rough idea about Ajax. I am developing a website having a feedback page in which, i want to populate the state/city DropDownList box depending upon the value selected in country DropDownList box.
I have seen some examples downloaded online but they are not working in my application due to many possible reasons, some of them may be the feedback page in my application is a content page, the web application is asp.net 2.0 web application, i don't have any additional ajax tools or scripts installed.give me the solution that should work with asp.net 2.0 web application (in VB.NET) and the feedback page is a content page. I don't want to add custom controls. I want to do it straight away with javascript or vbscript using XMLHTTP object.
After everything is set right with Ajax. What if the browser doesn't support Ajax? What should i do in such case?

In my career I have seen literally dozens of ways that people choose to handle implementing state and country data (as in NY or USA). I've seen enumerations, multi-dimensional arrays, data driven classes from XML docs or databases, and good old-fashioned strings.
So, I'm wondering, what do people consider the "best way" to handle this very common implementation? I know that most of the answers will be based primarily on opinion and preference; but, I'm curious to hear arguments as a recent discussion for an app I'm working on has resulted in a small debate.
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'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?
