I'm having a weird problem in ASP.NET 1.1. I have two DropDownLists in
a form. Both lists are build identically but separately. Somehow the
DropDownLists are getting crossed in memory, because when I set the
SelectedValue for the second list, the first list's SelectedValue
becomes set to the SelectedValue of the second list.
I'm also getting this exception during the render process: "A
DropDownList cannot have multiple items selected." I'm pretty sure this
is related to this problem.
The DDLs are named ddlSupervisorID 1 and ddlSupervisorID 2. Yes, I am
assigning the second supervisor before the first supervisor. This helps
illustrate the problem better. I'm having the same problem when the
first supervisor is assigned first.)
Any assistance is appreciated.
