Web Forms :: DropDownList LINQ No Default Value?
Jun 1, 2010I have a dropdownlist that is being populated using linq. The code for linq is below
[Code]....
When the page is viewed the dropdownlist show the following;towels, shoes, etc. What I would like is the default item to be nothing. That is when the page is viewed then the drop down list should show something like this "select category". Right now it is starting by showing towels, which is quite irritating, since if I want to see towels I first have to select something else and then go back and select it!

In "Insert" mode, location currently displays Dallas. I want it to be set to blank initially and the user select one. What am I mssing?

View 3 RepliesForms Data Controls :: DropDownList Is Only Selecting The Default Value?
Oct 11, 2010The intension is to get the all text file names in the drop down present in a particular location. When a user selects any filename from the drop down, it will show the data which is in that particular text file in a GridView.
I've done both the steps and it's almost complete but i stuck on a small issue. Probably because of non-usage of ASP.NET for a long period of time. The problem is, the drop down only selects the default value not other values.Here's my code for DropDown Selected Index Change
protected void DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@"C:myLogs");

How To Add Default Listitem To Dropdownlist
Sep 25, 2010I have a databound dropdownlist, bound to an object datasource. I want to have a default value of "None" inserted at the top of the list and I would like to do this declaritively if possible. After much googling I came up with the below code. However it does not display my default item. I was under the impression that setting the AppendDataBoundItems to True would solve this, however it hasn't.
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="ddl" DataSourceID="ldsCompany" DataTextField="CompanyName" DataValueField="CompanyId" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("CompanyId") %>' AppendDataBoundItems="True">
<asp:ListItem Value="DefaultValue" Text="DefaultText"/>

View 2 RepliesC# - Can Set Dropdownlist Default Values Based On Variables
Mar 9, 2011I have several pages linked together that I want to maintain drop down selections for. I've seen a number of ways to do this with session values, etc, but I want to set the default value while still having the option of selecting other values.
Effectively, users will make selections on page 1 and then on page 2 they will use those same selections, but also potentially want to change their selections. My thought was that I could load the selections into a table in SQL in page 1 and then in page 2 call that table and set the values as variables. My question, then, is how I would set the default dropdown value to be a variable as opposed to a set value.
I am using VisualStudio2010 with ASP Webforms using C#.
