How can I get the selected value of a HTML dropdown list using asp.net 2.0 (VB). I know I have done something like this before, but can't find that code.
Here is my HTML list
<select id="a2"><option>1</option><option>2</option><option>3</option><option>4</option><option>5</option></select>
How can i generate dropdown lists based on what has been selected in the checckbox list. Below is an example of what i need. if the user selects the options day, lotID and waferID, then 3 cascading dropdown lists should be displayed. And then a gridview displays data based on what has been chosen in the dropdown lists.
Day
LotID
SlotID
WaferID
VendorID
ToolID
LocationDetected
ProcessStep
Stage
Precipe
WaferStartMaterial
WaferStartVendor
WaferStartLot
WaferDiameterCOA
WaferMapTitle
BreakPoint
BreakpointSide
BreakpointMeasurement
Clicking the label of a drop down list, re-sets the selected value to the first item in the list. This has a history of causing data entry problems when users accidently click on the label.
In the below example ddlContactType has a selected value as 'PRIMARY' and whenever i click on the lblContactType Text, the dropdown box Selected value is changing to "Select One" Text.
How to prevent this one. It should be on PRIMARY Only.
<p>
<tr> <td ><asp:Label ID="lblContactType" Font-Bold="true" Text="Contract Type: *" ForeColor= "red" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="ddlContactType"></asp:Label> </td> <td > <asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="ddlContactType" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" AppendDataBoundItems="true"
DataTextField="TYPE" DataValueField="ID" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("CONTACT_TYPE_ID") %>'>
<asp:ListItem Text="Select One" Value="0" Selected="True"></asp:ListItem>.......
I'm trying to progam a strongly typed "Create" view using MVC 3 and razor. I want the user to be able to select a customer from a dropdown list (I populated this from my database using ViewBag in the controller). When the user has selected a customer I want a separate dropdown list to generate a list of dogs belonging to that customer related by the customerID in the database. The create button on the form will then take both of these values along with the the other fields and save it to the database.

I have a main "index" view that has a drop down and a submit button. When a selection is made (CampaignId) and a submit button is pressed a list of items is displayed and filtered based on the selection from the drop down list.
I've added a partial view (on the right rail) of my site that lists a bunch of campaigns. when a link is pressed in that partial view a (CampaignId) is passed to my page and the same thing happends as if you would make a selection from the drop down. The issue is that the dropdown "Campaign Name" should be selected based on the selection from the partial view.

I have a list of options (IEnumerable< SelectListItem >) in my model that I want to use in multiple dropdowns in my view. But each of these dropdowns could have a different selected option.
Is there an easy way to simply specfiy which should be selected if using the Html.DropDownList helper?
At this point, the only way I can see is to generate the html myself and loop through the list of options like so:
[code]....
After validation dropdown list do not select previous value.
<%: Html.DropDownList("Country",(SelectList)ViewData["Country"],"") %>
However in Quick View there is correct selected value. :(

I'm trying to set the selected value of a ddl during page load ie. before databind.
This causes "selected value does not exist" errors. So I force a databind, and add a new element if it does not exist in the data source.
However it looks like when the databind is performed later in the page lifecycle that my added element(s) are removed/overwritten.
Am I setting the values in the wrong part of the life cycle?
I wish to pass values of the selected items into a database and however noticed that the selected item is not what is sent into the database you can see in the snap shot below. during run time the following value is recorded. Where did it all go wrong with the dropdown lists selected item? Counting on your intelligence.

I have a dropdown list which I am populating using the following code:
[Code]....
Fitter: <%--<%= Html.TextBox("Fitter", Model.Fitter)%>--%> <%= Html.DropDownList("Fitter", Model.Fitter)%> <%= Html.ValidationMessage("Fitter", "*")%>
I have a couple of dropdownlists and a button.when a user selects an item in the 1st dropdownlist,the 2nd dropdown is programmatically bound to a set of items(using an ajax request) depending on the value selected in the 1st dropdown.Then the user will have the ability to choose an item from the 2nd dropdown and click on the button,which performs some server side opeartions and returns the results.
But if the user tries to click on the button before the 2nd dropdown list is populated,user will receive an exception message.Instead of that I would like to prevent the user from clicking the button before the ajax request is completed to populate the 2nd dropdown.I tried using Button1.Enabled=false in the selectedvaluechanged event of 1st dropdown,which does n't seem to work.
I want to stop postback if a certain value from a ddl is selected.
I've used VB to create a page whereby if a certain value from a ddl is selected then a hidden panel becomes visible. The problem is the likely answer to a majority of my ddl's is 'No' (or a no type response), however, even though the panel visibility remains false upon selecting No a postback still occurrs, the page refreshes and moves back to the top. I suppose this is a question with 2 possible solutions (or 2 questions rather)
1: Is there anyway of setting postback to false if selected value = No? A typical example of how my code appears is below
[Code]....
(i've used the value '1' to represenet Yes)
2: Is there a way of setting the page position after postback? As you can see in my code above i've set the focus on the next control (being a Radio Button) but i mean, is there an actual way of defining where the scroll bar is set?
I have googled a lot to find any solution to pass the selected dropdownlist item to another page.
In my controller view, I have a got list of of items:
List<SelectListItem> PackagingService = new List<SelectListItem>();
Dim ename As String = DropDownList.SelectedItem.Value
this statement is'nt working
I use to populate Dropdown using javascript:
function populateDDL(ddl_id) {
var option_str = "";
var x;
for(x in datalist){
option_str += " <asp:ListItem Value='" + datalist[x] + "' Text='" + datalist[x] + "'></asp:ListItem>"
}
var country_div = document.getElementById(ddl_id);
country_div.innerHTML = option_str;
}
This is sure the datalist is not empty and also Dropdown list populated perfectly..but dnt know why after clicking on my page add button I am not getting the selected value.
I try to display the selected value with dropdown list by using label control but cant display it in firefox but works fine in internet explorer.
Below are my code:

View 1 RepliesI'm having a dropdown list which is being bound dynamically from database. For that i've written selected index changed event which captures the DataValueField of dropdownlist and returns few values from the database again. This dropdown list is in a datalist control and there are 5 items in my datalist control.Selected Value is not working for first 3 items in datalist and working for remaining items.i've changed code many times and i got mad why it is not selecting the selected value..Here is my aspx code and codebehind..
<asp:DropDownList ID="drpHotels" AutoPostBack="True" runat="server" Width="200px" DataTextField="hotel_title" DataValueField="hotel_id" OnSelectedIndexChanged="drpHotels_SelectedIndexChanged">
<asp:ListItem Text="Select a Hotel" Selected="False"></asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
[Code]....
For the first item in datalist when i select a value then on Selected Index Changed event, i can see the LISTITEM "SELECT A HOTEL" instead of selected original value.NOTE: this is not happening for all the datalist items, only for first 3 items..
I'm doing property booking based project.
I have repeater control for search results.
For every search result I create a dropdown list with 2 month booking overview.
<ddl>
<item value = "1"> January - February </item>
<item value = "2"> February - March </item>
etc.
Then I call function to generate 2 months calendar view, which has two parameters generate(startmonth as Integer, sku as string)
Everything works when I hardcode starmonth as some integer.
I spent all day with no progress on how to pass value. I need a guide. I guess second problem will be to restore changed dropdown values on Postback, but one step at a time.
But what I want to do, to pass selected item value, to function, that would change view for property associated with this dropdown.
