No postback after setting SelectedValue

Hi:

I noticed that after setting SelectedValue of a dropdownlist to have an item
selected in list, if you reselect the same item later, it will not postback.
In most cases I can see that this behavoir is correct, however in the
scenario I'm working on, I would like it to postback. How do I force it to
postback?

Thanks,
Charlie

Charlie,

Whenever you want to force a postback you can make a javascript call to
myForm.submit() .

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. Adding the controls and getting everything...

Hi guys, I am converting a rather complicated database driven Web application from classic ASP to ASP.NET 2.0 using VB 2005 as the programming language. The original ASP application works quite well, so at times it is tempting just to port parts of it over mostly as-is. In fact, one MSDN article I read suggested using straight HTML wherever possible to make the app more efficient and less resource demanding. On one page there are 2...

Hi, A postback sends values back to the server (e.g. the selectedvalue of a dropdownlist or the text of a textbox). I changed the text of the textbox and it's forecolor with Javascript. When doing a postback, i still can see the new text but the new forecolor is gone. May i conclude that postback only sends 'values' like selectedvalue or texboxvalue and not the other properties like forecolor or width ...?

Hello. I wrote a Web Custom Control that have a property named SelectedValue. This SelectedValue property is set after the user clicks a LinkButton control, by its Click() event. I did some tests, and I noticed that my handled LinkButton_Click() event is fired only after the Page_Load() event, due to page and control lifecicles. The result of this is, when in Page_Load(), I can only catch the SelectedValue from a previous postback (out...

Hi, i experimented with postback and viewstate. With this code, there are 2 dropdownlists created, one visible and with AutoPostBack true, the other not visible and no AutoPostBack, and one button . The first time, when i choose value "b" of DD1, the second DD appears. That's normal. Now, what i don't understand is when i further click on the button (causing a postback), the second DD remains visible. Don't think i don't want it. I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
