DropDownList

Hi
I looked everywhere to solve my problem but with no success. On page there
is a dropdownlist control which is binded to a database. When I select one
of the list item and press a button I would like to get the SelectedItem
property, but it is always set to Nothing. What should i do? On page load I
use Page.IsPostBack=false to load the dropdownlist only once.
Thanks!

I don't want the page to reload so I can't use AutoPostBack=true.

Did you set the 'EnableViewState' to true for the dropdownlist ?

the item in a check list has a value and item text, are you setting the item
value?
