I have a dropdown control that has a list of names in it called PlayerNameDropDownList_Insert and a textBox called PlayerName.
When I select a name from the dropdown it populates the textbox correctly.However, when the page opens the first name is selected in the dropdown but nothing in the textbox. How can I get the textbox to populate with the value of the dropdown at pageload?

I have a page with 14 dropdown lists. In the first page load (ie. not isPostback) I set the selectedIndex of the dropdownlists individually but I find that they are all set to the value I use for the last dropdownlist set. Here is the code
comboFirstJudge1.SelectedIndex = 0
comboFirstJudge2.SelectedIndex = 0
<so on for all the dropdown lists until the last one>
comboFirstJudge14.SelectedIndex = 4
The result is that all dropdown lists have SelectedIndex = 4. If I run the same code on a postback it works just fine (the first lists have SelectedIndex = 0 and the last one = 4).
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.
View 1 RepliesI want to populate a Dropdown list from divisons of a figure in my projects database
for example database figure 50
I want the dropdown list to show 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50
The database figure wont always be the same.
how would i go about doing this ? esp the populating of the dropdown list itself based on the way i want to show it.
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 would like to know how to load the dropdown list in the Gridview edit with the dropdown list values from the database
View 3 RepliesI am running into some additional difficulties with dropdown lists, and I'm hoping you can correct my thinking.
I have a table populated with items; ITEM_ID, ITEM_NAME, ITEM_COST.
Here is my code:
[Code]....
With this code I get this error: DataBinding: 'ITEM' does not contain a property with the name '2'.
If I remove the assignment of DataSource to c1, the dropdown generates this error: 'DropDownList3' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.
Parameter name: value
How should I code this so that the user is presented with a list of ITEM_NAMES, and that the ITEM_ID is stored in the value field so I can use it when the selection event is fired? I know I could databind the source directly to the dropdown list, but I am trying to understand the behind the scenes working of a dropdown list object.
I am populating a page with controls reading properties of a class using reflection. If the property type is 'String' I will add a text-box. If the property type is enum I am adding a dropdownlist. Now I have to populate the dropdown options with enums. How can this be done?
Both the enum definition class(Assignment) and the class(classOne) using which I am populating the page with controls are in the same Namespace(MySolution.Data). While looping through classOne properties when the property name is 'SkillLevel' I will have to go to assignment class get the members of enum SkillLevelEnum and populate the dropdown.
Same needs to be done for other dropdowns also.
My Code:
namespace MySolution.Data
{
public class classOne : MyAdapter
{
private string _Model;

View 1 Repliesi want my dropdown list or my list box, load data from my database .i use visual studio 2008 and sql server 2005.
View 3 RepliesI am very new to coding in asp.net, I've never done anything before, but heres my problem, I have a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Database, and basically I need to be able to search that database by 3 different things, basically there is tons of data, and I need to be able to search by a member ID, a location, and a group name So basically I wanted a drop down list, with these 3 column names, and than a search box where you can actually type in what you are looking for, than have the results display, I have been trying to do this with gridview, but I can't seem to get it to work correctly
View 14 RepliesI found that I don't need to use jQuery or AjaxToolKit to use a textbox with autocomplete instead using the AutoCompleteType() class.However, base in the documentation it says the autocomplete will just trigger after the button was click at first instance, with that
description looks like what I want to do will not be applicable.Is it possible to populate the textbox with a list of strings in page load? so that if I type in a textbox it will give me a complete list of strings already.
I've currently got a form with two dropdown boxes on, and an XML file sitting on the site.
My two drop down boxes are Location and Date and what i'm trying to do it get the Location box to filter the XML and put the dates in the Date dropdown box.

Unfortunatly, its not working.
My code is:

why my dropdown boxes are not being populated?
I am stuck at this point "Displaying a dropdown list of Categories with a --None -- Option. I want the gridview control to display 2 dropdown list one in read-only mode and the other in edit mode. When a record is in read-only mode, the dropdownlist's enabled property will be set to false."When it's on a read-only mode, it doesn't display the selected Category. it shows but the "No Category". When i click on edit to edit or change category, it doesn't display the selected category.

I have a complicate problem. I'm not sure if I can explain it clearly. I have SQL table with columns: id, PartNo, ManuPartNo, GovtPartNum.
My boss want to do like this with 3 dropdown or 1 Dropdown with 2 listbox: If he select any PartNo, it will pull associated value For ManuPartNo & GovtPartNum
Also, if he select any ManuPartNo, it will populate back to other dropdown
Also, if he select any GovtPartNum, it will populate back to other dropdown
I'm so stuck & I don't know where to start on this.
Does anyone know how to do this so when I select something the 1st dropdown and the 2nd one becomes visible and populates list from a Select statement. I really need help on how to do in an aspx and not on the code behind page.
View 12 RepliesI am a complete newcomer to ASP.NET. However in the few weeks I have been playing with it I have got pretty far and have mastered things like stored procedures, gridviews, formviews and templates.I have a dropdown box which is populated from SQLDataSource1
I have a second dropdown box which is populated from SQLDataSource2, but i need the query feeding this to be dependent on what was selected in the first dropdown box. I assumed it would simply be a case of modifying the select statement on SQLDataSource2 using the SelectedIndexChanged event on the first DropDownList to update the second SQL source, but I cannot work out for the life of me how to do it. Pretty much all of the code I have is ASP.
can i do this purely in ASP rather than using VB behind the scenes or do I need to use VB? I am pretty comfortable with vb.net but one of the other issues I have is referencing an ASP object from VB... so for instance if I had a text box in ASP, how can I read or change the properties of this object from VB?
FYI I am using Visual Studio 2010 and SQL/Server
I've noticed that page load time increases dramatically as you load up a ddlistbox with items. 10,000 or so results in a pretty much unacceptable wait time for my setup. The dropdown I'm trying to load is Airports - like all of them. What are some alternative UI solutions that give the user the ability to easily select any (literally) airport, but without a ginormous page loading time? (Currently the dd is keyed to the airport's 3 letter code, so it's convenient for the prepared user to just type the 3-letter code and have the right airport selected. The display is then set to code, city, country.)

I would like to ask a question about hiding a drop down in my gridview. I have a gridview and I have a drop down list to control the page size of that gridview. when there is data in that gridview, it is fine for user to see the drop down list. But when there are records in the gridview, I do not want the user to see this drop down list. How can I hide it when there is no data?
View 2 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 page contain a dropdownlist which binding many list of data with no categories. While refresh in one update panel is very slow.
View 4 Repliesi want to see the sales in the grid view based on the month selected from drop down list. Ex: when I select June 2010 from the ddl box, the sales for that month are correctly displayed in the grid view. I go to page 4 to look at some sales there and then switch the month to August 2010 to see sales for that month instead. Here is the problem. When I switch the month, it show August 2010 sales, but stays in page 4 instead of going back/resetting back to page 1 of August 2010 sales.
How do I reset the grid view page back to the first page of August 2010 sales?
