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 am developing a web site that has holiday prices which are taken from a different database and loaded into two SQL databases.I have two girdviews to display each of the prices data.What my issues is that I need to load an SqlDataSource on database 1,when 'Family' is selected from a dropdown list and run an SqlDataSource on database 2 when 'Themed' is selected and then run both when 'Don't Mind' is selected.
In my web form, i have 2 drop downlist controls. eg. dropdown1 and dropdown2. I will change the dropdownlist1 item, consequently selectedindexchanged event fires and reloads the dropdownlist2 items. And i have another button also in order to get the result based on the dropdown1 and dropdown2. Lets say for example, i have a list of countries in dropdown1 and a list of states in dropdown2. I selected "India" in dropdown1 and correspondingly "Tamilnadu" in dropdown2. And then click a button which calls the dataset based on dropdown1 and dropdown2. The problem i face here is, whenever i click on the button to load the dataset, dropdown1 value remains the same as the dataset is not called again, whereas the dropdown2 value changes to the first one as it gets called automatically during postback. For your information, I have loaded both the lists in the page load using (!IsPostback) property.
My coding is as follows:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (Session["sesUserName"] == null)
{
Response.Redirect("sessionExpr.aspx", false);
}
else
{
lblStatus.Visible = false;
pnlEvaluate.Visible = false;
if (!IsPostBack)
{
fnLoadDropDown1();
fnLoadDropdown2();
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
}
public void fnLoadDropDown1()
{
dsLoadDD1 = objWebRef.fnLoadOnlineTest();
if (dsLoadDD1.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
{
ddTestTitle.DataTextField = "vchTestTitle";
ddTestTitle.DataValueField = "intTestID";
ddTestTitle.DataSource = dsLoadDD1.Tables[0];
ddTestTitle.DataBind();
}
}
public void fnLoadDropDown2()
{
dsLoadDD2 = objWebRef.fnLoadOnlineTest();
if (dsLoadDD2.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
{
ddUser.DataTextField = "vchUser";
ddUser.DataValueField = "intUserID";
ddUser.DataSource = dsLoadDD2.Tables[0];
ddUser.DataBind();
}
}
protected void ddTestTitle_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) ...................
I have a function on page load which will work based on dropdown selected value. and I am using this dropdown in a user control. So getting problem because the dropdown value is not loaded yet before Page Load. How Can I do that using those control still.

{
StudentManager studentManager = null;
CourseManager courseManagerObj = null;
GradeManager gradeManager = null;

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>();
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 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?

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.
