Hello

I have a page where an employee can enter data for a building permit. Closes to the bottom of the page there is a dropdown control for ‘Type of Improvement’. Occasionally a new Improvement Type needs to be entered.

What I would like to do is use something like the ModalPopup extender control to add the new Improvement Type to the sql db and refresh the dropdown. I think this is possible I just can’t figure out how to do it. I think I have come close but all the help I find on google use something different then beta2.

I feel I am closes using this tutorial http://codingatlas.wordpress.com/2006/09/15/sliding-task-lists-project-%e2%80%93-building-an-atlas-application-from-a-scratch/

Can anyone direct me to a tutorial to help me with this?

TIA
