I have a page that is almost entirely dynamically created. Textboxes
and checkbox are working fine, firing events, and persistent their
state. DropDownList is giving me a major headache.
All my controls are created in CreateChildCont rols() for my custom
control. Here's a snippet of code:
DropDownList dd = new DropDownList();
dd.ID = "DropDown1" ;
if( !Page.IsPostBac k )
{
//dd.DataSource = GetListItems();
//dd.DataBind();
dd.Items.Add( new ListItem("Apple s", "1") );
dd.Items.Add( new ListItem("Banan as", "2") );
dd.Items.Add( new ListItem("Orang es", "3") );
int i = dd.Items.IndexO f( new ListItem( user.FruitChoic e ));
if( i != -1 ) dd.SelectedInde x = i;
}
dd.SelectedInde xChanged +=new EventHandler(dd _SelectedIndexC hanged);
//dd.AutoPostBack = true;
Controls.Add(dd );
The event handler never executes. My list items are not present after
a post-back. How do I persist this and get the data out of it? Why is
my event handler not firing?
I've tried re-creating the list items every time... I've tried the
autopostback obviously... I've tried explicitly assigning a control ID.
Nothing is working.
I've read a *ton* of old newsgroup posts about this very subject over
the last hour or two, but either it's a different problem or no
solution posted.
Anybody have some pointers here?

Just out of curiosity, I note that you have the AutoPostBack line
commented out. Did you try to set the AutoPostBack to true manually
and this still happens? By default, DDLs are AutoPostBack=fa lse.
Have you tried to debug this to see where the events are actually
going?
Just a thought,

Yes, I have tried with AutoPastBack. Have you tried to debug this to see where the events are actually
going?
I'm not sure what you mean by this?
Actually, it's just the SelectedIndexCh anged event that is not firing.
The Load and Unload events are firing just fine. Which makes it all
the more frustrating...
Where are you building the list? Dynamically built lists need to be built
during the Init event, otherwise event will not fire.

I am creating the DropDownList in CreateChildCont rols. That certainly
seemed like the logical place to do it, given the method name. It's
where I'm creating everything else and those controls are working just
fine.
OK, I just tried building in the OnInit event and sure enough the
SelectedIndexCh anged event fired correctly this time. Thanks for the
info Peter. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

I have built a control that runs an on-line help system. Depending on the
category you selected via dropdownlist, it goes out and gets the child
subcategories, and if there are any, adds a new dropdownlist to the screen
for selection. This continues until there are no children, and then it
checks for a help article list based on that last selection and displays
actual articles for display.

Hi,
I noticed an interesting effect when working with controls that are
dynamically loaded. For instance, on a web form with a PlaceHolder control
named ImageHolder, I dynamically add an image button at runtime:

protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.PlaceHolder ImageHolder;
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

PROBLEM:
When a user control is loaded into a PlaceHolder control more than once, the
events do not fire on the first click of a control on the dynamically loaded
user control. In other words, the first time the control is dynamically
loaded, everything works fine. After that, if the control is loaded again
from the page button event handler, the user controls events fail to fire on
the first click

Hello,
I have a problem with events not firing. I've created a web user
control which renders a calendar using a table control. In two cells
I'm adding LinkButtons for "prev/next month". However, the events from
these are not fired.
In the PageLoad event I check if it's a PostBack. If it isn't, I'm
calling DisplayCalendar() to render the calendar. This part works and I
get the output. If it *is* a postback (i.e. one of the linkbuttons...

Hi,
I'm sure I've done this before, but I can't get it to work today...
I'm trying to add a DropDownList into a TableCell and wire up its
SelectedIndexChanged event. I'm adding the dynamic control like this:
mtblCell = new TableCell();
mtblCell.ColumnSpan = 2;
DropDownList cmbShipping = new DropDownList();

Hi.
I have an asp.net web application written in C# which creates a datasource
consisting of a Name and a list of permissable Values. This datasource is
then bound to a simple repeater, the Name being bound to a label and the
Values being bound to a DropDownList. All works fine.
The next thing I wished to do was tap into the ItemDataBound event to add a
generic "Please Select..." item to each DropDownList, with a value of "0".

I've built a WebForm with a Table added dynamically in Page_Load when
IsPostBack is false. The table includes a couple of TextBoxes,

On postback, those controls are not present nor their valves in

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
