Every time I chage the listbox I want to text in the listbox to display on a seprate label on my form. I have used this:
[Code]....
And this error is for the code above.
I have a situation where some dropdown listboxes contain some items, then there's a separator line, and then there are more items. The ones above the separator line reflect the "commonly used items". To better highlight these I was using code like this to individually color those specfic items:
foreach (ListItem item in ddList.Items)
{
if (item.Value == "-1")
unAssigned = true;
if (!unAssigned)
item.Attributes.Add("style", "color:#5558ff");
}
This code works fine EXCEPT that once a PostBack occurs then the highlighting disappears. The items in the dropdown listbox remain (without repopulation) but not the highlighting.
I'm curious why this is happening and whether there's a way for the highlighting to "stick" short of calling this code from the Page_Load event handler every Postback?
I have a drop down that lists all our 40+ locations.. I then have a list box with all our locations as well. The client is presented with the question which locations have you worked at before. If they pick say 3 locations, i need to remove or disable those 3 from the drop down. I have other code for creating a drop down, but not sure where to go with this.
Here is my code for the controls and code behind:

How would I retreive the following numeric id value from a xml response, to a dropdownlistbox?
[Code]....
The following does not work for newContactID
var xmlResponse = proxy.ProcessClientAction(xmlRequest);var parsedXmlResopnse = XElement.Parse(xmlResponse);
I would like to have the ContactRecID's value stored in the variable newContactID based on the selection of the user. So if the user selects the the person "Sam" then 4033 should be stored in newContactId.

function (resp)
{
var ddlCaste= document.getElementById("<%=lstBxCaste_RS.ClientID%>");
ddlCaste.length=0;
var castesList = resp;
alert (resp);
if(castesList.keys.length >0)
{
for(var i=0 ;i< castesList.keys.length;i++)
{
op=castesList.keys[i];
ddlCaste.options[ddlCaste.length]=new Option(castesList.values[i],op);

I have a Gridview that has a button at the left hand side representing the row number. The Gridview has two textboxes and a dropdown listbox as templates. I would like to enable or disable the textboxes and the dropdown listbox if the row is not selected. I also need to enable or disable the templates depending on what the value is of one of the cells. When the templates are changed, I need to save the changes.
I have been able to get this working in the RowDataBound Sub but not in the RowCommand Sub when the row is selected. provide an example in VB.My current RowDataBoundSub, which does no work is below:
Protected Sub PropGrid_RowCommand(ByVal sender As Object, _

how to get the text...
i am creating a listCollection like this:
[code]....
however my text and value in the drop down, both show the text. When i debug the above code li.Value = row.Item("risCode") shows the Code correctly, but why does it not reflect when i try to bind it to the dropdown list?
When adding list item the Value field is being set to the Text field. Initially I though the problem was related to the input parameter for the primary key ( group_type_id ) as it is configured as OUTPUT variable.
Interesting enough, when I Watch all of the values, everything is correct.
So for example, I'll watch these:
ddr["group_type_name"] comes out as "Dept"
ddr["grouptypeid"] comes out as 4
When the item is created however,
itms.TEXT = "Dept"
itms.Value = "Dept" <-- THIS IS THE PROBLEM
I'm at a loss why the listbox values are being set to the text values when I can clearly see the data reader values are correct. ?

I'm using a ListBox to display fairly long text items (500 characters). If an item is too long it will go out the side of the ListBox and not be fully displayed. How can I get items in the ListBox to wrap? Also, is it possible to put some sort of separator between each item?
View 1 RepliesFirst, a user select a country from a dropdown list. The selected item & its value are store in a seesion. Then the user leaves this page.
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddl1" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Value="US" Selected="True">USA</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="AF">Afghanistan</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="AL">Albania</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
Dim arr(1) as string
arr(0) = ddl1.SelectedItem.ToString
arr(1) = ddl1.SelectedValue
Session("arr") = arr
Later on, the user may come back to the page and change the selection of the country. However, I want the dropdown list to remember the previously selected item and value. The item name and its value are now stored in an array. How do you assign it to the dropdown list as pre-selected.
My mission is to figure out how to hide a dropdown box, and I hope I will be able to receive some . My web form is set up like kind of a questionare, mostly yes/no, some N/A's for the answers in the dropboxes. I would like to make an entire question vanish based on the previous question being answered N/A. I have the web form setup using tables, each question occupying a cell.

View 2 RepliesI have 1 drop down, 1 text field and 1 command button i.e. "Search". Dropdown contrains following values
Type1
Type2
Type3
In textbox user will enter numeric or alphanumeric value
Here I want to check if 'Type1' is selected so user can enter only numeric value between 1000 and 2000, otherwise display some message "Entered value is not valid for "Type1". I want to display this message thru required validator error message property
If user select 'Type1' and 'Type2' then user can enter any alphanumeric value other than 1000-2000 numeric range.
I want to implement thru Search button or once user leave the textbox after entering value. Here I want to display message.
I think this is almost impossible but I would like to ask.
