I think may be you have made SelectedIndex to 0(or the index corresponds to "Bhopal") in the SelectedIndexCh anged Event of your dropdownlist.

please check it...

In my user contol I am creating a set of dropdownlists. Each list is created based on input from the other lists. The problem I am having is setting the selected index on the lists. If someone changes box1, I want to set the selected index in box2 = 0. When I do this, I dont get an error, but when the page loads, it still has the selected value and not 0. It seems that it is getting the selected value from the viewstate

I have a dropdown list set up to show 4 items on screen. If you select an item below that 4, it will not display on the screen (but it is selected). When you postback the list shows the first four and you have to scrolldown to see the one you chose. Is there a way to have the dropdownlist show the one (or the first one) that is selected? This is confusing to the user as he thinks nothing is selected.

Hi all, I have a web page which has a single dropdownlist containing 3 items. Below the dropdownlist are two listboxes. Depending on the option selected from the dropdownlist, the left most listbox populates itself from a DB table, assigning the correct id to each item as a value. In between the listboxes are two buttons. On clicking an 'add' button, I am trying to grab the id of the item selected (the goal being to place this id and...

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,...
