C# - Why DropDownList.SelectedIndexChanged Event Does Not Fire
Feb 9, 2011
I have a DropDown which is bounded to an ObjectDataSource. On its data bound event, I am adding "--select--" value on the 0 index. I have a LinkButton on the page and on its client click, i am selecting different item on drop down (using JavaScript). Suppose there are 3 items like --select--, option1, option2 and option3 and now on link button's client click i selected option3, now if I select the default value "--select--", it does not fire the SelectedIndexChanged event. If I select any other value then it fires. Why does it not work for the default value?

I have some code which fires when user selects an item in dropdownlist. Now i want the same code to fire when i set selectedindex programmatically.
I have tried setting
ddlSystemLevelDCP.SelectedIndex=2;
and this as well
ddlSystemLevelDCP.SelectedValue="2";
None of them fires this event.However when user changes the selection,this event fires.Please tell me what am i missing.

dropDown.DataValueField = "IDNivel";
dropDown.DataTextField = "NIVEL";
dropDown.EnableViewState = true;
dropDown.DataSource =
DBLibray.DefinitionIndicadores.spSelect_FillCombosWithNivelByIdParent(
ref dataConnector,
Convert.ToInt32(idSubistema));

I have a form which has some dropdownlists (ListItems "Yes" "No"). I use my form to Enter data & submit to database and use same form to Edit aswell. Like I redirect to this form from another page with a QueryString. If there is a QueryString then SELECT * FROM Table WHERE ID = QueryString's value & fill all the controls in the form like
[URL]
I have certain things to do when DropDownList.SelectedValue = "Yes" so I can use SelectedIndexChanged event handler & AutoPostBack="true" when submitting form for the first time. Now when I edit the information(Data filled from table as stated above). How can i automatically fire all events like DropDownlist SelectedIndexChanged in the page_Load iteslef so that all the things that are supposed to be done when DropDownList.SelectedValue = "Yes". I'm posting my test code for reference to explain what I'm trying to do. This is just the Idea. I have something else to deal with if i can get this stright. I need to dynamically add controls based on the values of DropDownList. please suggest some thing guys.

I have added the AutoPostBack = "true" attribute to the drop down list. It doesn't work.
<asp:DropDownList CssClass="dropDownList" ID="ddlBusinessUnit"
AutoPostBack="true" runat="server" Width="250px"
OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlBusinessUnit_SelectedIndexChanged">
</asp:DropDownList>
code behind:
Protected Sub ddlBusinessUnit_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Response.Write("Hello")
End
How can I ensure that the event method is called?

I have seen a million forums ask this question. This is what has been working for me.
protected void checkboxlist_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CheckBoxList list = (CheckBoxList)sender;
string[] control = Request.Form.Get("__EVENTTARGET").Split('$');
int idx = control.Length - 1;
string sel = list.Items[Int32.Parse(control[idx])].Value;
I'm way off and have just been lucking out, but I haven't seen a case where the index wasn't the last value in a '$' terminated string.

I've got a UserControl that's used inside of an UpdatePanel. The UserControl is a fairly simple form that appears via a ModalPopupExtender (which is also part of the UserControl). There are four DropDownLists, as well as some other UI elements. Three of the four DropDownLists have AutoPostBack="true", with SelectedIndexChanged events that fire on the server and cause some of the other DropDownLists to rebind. Two of the three DDL's that AutoPostBack are working fine. One of them, which I only just added, is showing some strange behavior. Let's say I bind five Items to it: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I set the SelectedIndex to 0, which makes 1 the selected item. If I select 5 and then 1 and keep toggling back and forth, everything works fine. The postback occurs and SelectedIndexChanged fires. Every time. If I ever select 2 or 4, the postback occurs but SelectedIndexChanged does not fire. Every time.
If I ever select 3, something bizarre happens and sometimes the value of the DDL reverts to 1. Even though breakpoints seem to show that it's not rebinding and no unexpected code is running. I know your first instinct will probably be that I'm wrong about the rebinding code not running, but I have literally been staring at the debugger for hours trying to find my mistake. Lots of breakpoints. I don't get it -- this really isn't that complicated. But obviously I am missing something. I've put about four hours into this so far and I think I'm just grinding at this point. I could use another perspective.
HTML (and by the way, DropProtocolCycleID is the problem control):
<asp:Panel ID="PanelPopupAssign" runat="server" Style="display:none; cursor: move; width:325px; background-color:Transparent;">
<BlueUI:Panel runat="server" ID="PanelPatientProtocol" Width="500px" HeaderText="Assign Protocol">
<table cellspacing="5">
<tr>
<td style="width:150px;"></td>
<td style="width:50px;"></td>
<td style="width:125px;"></td>
</tr>
<tr runat="server" id="TableRowCategory">
<td align="right">Category:</td>
<td colspan="2">
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="DropProtocolCategories" CausesValidation="false" autopostback="true"/>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right">Protocol:</td>
<td colspan="2">..............................

i read article "using javascript with asp.net radiobuttonlist control" and i found it useful.
[var RB1 = document.getElementById("<%=RadioButtonList1.ClientID%>");
var radio = RB1.getElementsByTagName("input");
if am setting radio[1].checked = 1; the item is checked. ]
step1: radio[0]=checked
radio[1]=not checked
radio[2]=not checked
step 2: by using javascript , am changing the selection
now
radio[0]=not checked
radio[1]=checked
radio[2]=not checked
step 3: if am changing radio[0]=checked by clicking, it wont fire the selected index change that i wrote on code behind
but if am changing radio[2]=checked by clicking, it will fire the selected index change that i wrote on code behind
My requirement: i want to fire the selected index change in both cases. for that i need to change the selected index in step 2.

I'm using VS2008. When a dataset is bound to the DataSource of a ListView, SelectedIndexChanged event does not fire. If I used DataSourceID instead, it has no problem. But SelectedIndexChanging event fires for both.
why and how I can get SelectedIndexChanged event fired when DataSource is used?

I have one dropdownlist control which populates values to other controls. Means upon selecting item in dropdownlist, related data is populated in other controls. I have also assigned dropdownlist's autopostback to TRUE. Everything is working good as far as dropdown has more than one item.
Whenever there is only one item, selectedindexchanged event is not fired (obviously.....) and eventually the data is not populated to other controls.
How could I get rid of this scenario? I mean which event should I use to avoid this?
At this time, I have just added the first item as something like "---Select Item---" , so when end-user has to select different item and thus the selecteditemindexchanged is fired. no biggie... but just wondering if proper solution is available....

It looks like it can't find the dropdownlist because it is inside the formview. How can I find the event?- if there is such a thing.

[Code]....
if this dropdownlist selectedIndexchanged event firing. Because of I am loading webcontrols each masterpage's PageLoadEvent.

In our asp.net web application we load the dropdown list boxes in the page load. We than set the SelectedValue of each dropdown list box to an object from session. We have event handlers for many of the SelectedIndexChanged events of the drop down lists boxes, but these do not get executed when we set the selected value programmatically.
Someone else mentioned this is by design, and only when a user manually changes the drop down list selected index, will the event get raised.
I would think this is a common scenario of wanting the selectedindexchanged event handled when setting the selectedvalue/selectedindex/listitem's selected property, of a DropDownList. What is the suggested way to handle this? Is there a significant drawback of creating a custom control inherited from DropDownList that has the functionality of raising this event when changing the SelectedIndex or SelectedValue?
