No, see the "value behind the list" as a unique identifier. Server side this
is ONLY this value that you get and you are then unable to know wether the
user selected b or c...
Looks like the logic you want is :
a - 1
b or c - 2
The user will then select the "b or c" line and server side we'll get the
value 2...
If you really want to distinguish wether the user select b or c, you'll have
to have a distinct "behind the list value" for those two entries...

I have a dropdown list where the text that the user sees is unique, but
the values behind the options in the list are not unique. So the
text/value pairs in the list might be:
a - 1
b - 2
c - 2
When I select the third option ("c") and postback, the server thinks
that the user actually selected the second option ("b") because it is
the first option with a value of 2. Is there any way to make this work
where it uses the text ("c") to identify which option is selected
instead of the value?
Thanks in advance.
