No
I assume that it's possible to disable another control using
JScript/VBScript without a postback, but that's slightly off-topic here.

Geoff,
It sounds like you are talking ASP.NET.
As Herfried suggests. If you want to do it server side, then you need to do
a postback. If you don't want a postback, then you will have to do it client
side with JavaScript or VBScript.
For help with client side JavaScript & VBScript you may want to ask this
"down the hall" in one of the microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.aspnet
newsgroups.
Hope this helps

Geoff,
Although you have two answers from VBNet ASPNET experts who denies my answer
to you, my answer stays No.
This can be the information created in a webform page at client side, which
contains all information of the data in the serverside controls (from which
the dropdownlist is one) on your page.
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTA TE"
value="dDw5Mzcw NzM4OTU7Oz6sJm5 Bgc+8ub9mK/REAxFYaxmlmQ==" />
I knew lot of JavaScript, however I do not know how to change this in a way
that I could assure that the information stays consistent.

That comment doesn't even warrant a response!
however I do not know how to change this in a way that I could assure that

You can turn off the ViewState for selected controls or all controls using
the Control.EnableV iewState which DropDownList inherits.
The Page directive also has EnableViewState attribute.
Hope this helps

Jay, You can turn off the ViewState for selected controls or all controls using
the Control.EnableV iewState which DropDownList inherits.
You are right, and have with that given the direct answer for this question.
By setting the ViewState to False it should be pretty easy for everybody who
knows a little bit of JavaScript,
So my answer becomes Yes.
:-)

Geoff,
I was thinking a lot more in your question than there probably is, when it
is as simple as you ask is can be this a piece of JavaScript, however with
that is in my opinion still the data in the box with a postback sent back to
the server side ass well as the the selectedindex. When you want to affect
that you should do more using that viewstate enabled is false.
You can put a HTML button on your form to test it
<script language=javasc ript>
<!--
function Button1_onclick () {
if (document.all(" DropDownList1") .disabled == false) {
document.all("D ropDownList1"). disabled = true}
else
{
document.all("D ropdownlist1"). disabled = false}
}
//-->
</script>
When you want to integrate it in VBNet you can use
Dim scriptString As String = "The script including javatags"
Page.RegisterSt artupScript("Bu tton1_OnClick", scriptString)

I'm wondering if there's a way to use javascript to disable a ASP.NET web

remainder of the page.
The problem is that if the user is on a slow...

Hi,
I wonder how to disable the "submit" behavior of a button. What I want is to
assign values to dynamically added user controls without page postback.
Problem: dynamically created control can not be accessed because the button
click trigers page postback(see sample code). When the button is clicked, an
error occurs: "System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an
instance of an object."
Please help. Thanks.
