Listbox delay postback

I have a couple of listboxes and dropdownlist on a page and they are postback
enabled. The problem is whenever user clicks the box the page brings to the
top. is there anyway to delay the postback till all the listboxes and
dropdown selections are made then the data is postback to server when the
submit button is clicked? Thanks for any response in advance!

Thanks for your response. I need the selected value from listboxes,
dropdownlists to be postback to server.

Hi Daisy

The property which controls whether or not selected data is retained
is "ViewStateEnabl ed" This I must emphasise only applies to web server
controls not to their html counterparts.

With regard to the page jumping back to the top there is a web.config
file setting that will prevent this in the <system><web><p ages>
section:

maintainScrollP ositionOnPostBa ck="True"

this is false be default

I'm developing a Web application where a user selects from a listbox which can have many items. The initial display only shows about 10 items. After a postback, the listbox is automatically scrolled back to the top, so the selected item is mostly no longer visible. How can I keep the position, so that the selected item is still shown?

I have created a Web Custom Control that inherits from WebControls.ListBox but can't get it to retain the selectedIndex after a postback. As a test I created a very simple version of the control with no additional code. I just inherited from the exisiting ListBox class and put the control on a page. I put this control a blank page along with a button to perform a post back. I select an item in the list box and then click the button...

I have a ListBox webcontrol on an aspx page. Items are added to the ListBox using client-side code. However, when the page is posted back the items are missing/not available. (It is like the page does not know the items were added client-side.) TIA, Val

For some reason I cannot get the OnSelectedIndexChanged event to fire for a listbox I have on a page. I'm able to populate the listbox with data from a stored procedure, but cannot trigger the event. I do have EnableViewState = True for the listbox. I'm imagining (wanting) to populate the listbox named: lstNames by using the DataValueField from lstDepartments. It's quite apparent though that the event is not triggering as I can misname...

Hello all: Clearly, I'm not getting it! Here is the scenario: On a web page, I have two list boxen and a text box. The first listbox is populated at page load time (if it is not a postback). This listbox has AutoPostback = True. When the user selects an item from this list, the second listbox is populated with more items relevant to this selection. I am using an SQLDataSource web control for this. These items are headers. I want, when...

I have a .net app that a user currently enters a number in a text box, hits a button and a data call is executed. She wants the ability to enter in multiple numbers (up to 100). So to make things look better visually for that, I created a listbox under the text box. She enters the number in the text box, clicks another button I added and the number is stored in the list box. Then my plan was to grab all those numbers from the list box...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
