I have a dropdown of states that is populated from a table, that looks like
ddlb.DataValueF ield="StateCode " // ex: FL
ddlb.DataTextFi eld="StateDescr iption" // ex: Florida
If I want to set the initial value I can use
ddlb.SelectedVa lue="Florida"
In other words, SelectedValue is the DataTextField
How do I set the initial value to the DataValueField?
ddlb.SelectedVa lue="FL" doesnt work (or is it just me?)
Thanks, Mark

There is no SelectedText property for the drop down list box.

try this:
dd.SelectedItem .Text = "FL";
or if you know the index number of Fl you can do
dd.SelectedInde x = 5 (or whatever FL is)

Actually, SelectedItem.Va lue is closer to what I want. But it adds a new
entry at the top, rather than selecting the existing value of "FL"
In other words, I get :
<option value="FL" selected="selec ted" value="FL">Alab ama
<option value="AL">Alab ama
.... other states
<option value="FL">Flor ida
And what I want is:
<option value="FL" selected="selec ted">Florida
<option value="AL">Alab ama
.... other states

Hi,
Is there anyway to get the datavaluefield from a databound checkboxlist

If not, is there any way to associate a custom attribute with the databound

javascript?

Hi,
Is it possible to do some action on the value that will be the
DataValueField of a listbox?
I have a listbox with a list of item. But I would like to encode the value
ID that the client will see in the html.
There is no way to do that on the database, it has to be done on the .net
side.

Hello Group,
As far as a dropdownlist, is there a way to access both values for
the datatextfield (like a name, etc) AND the value of the datavaluefield
(like a record number, or index etc).
the dropdown list is populated by a query to a datbase table.
loaded with a datareader like below:
Dlist.DataSource = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
Dlist.DataTextField = TextField; (this would be a name, "Jones Inc.")

Depending on the month selected elsewhere I show a variable number of days in

What is the simplest way to clear the entries out of a drop down list box so
