Hi there

I have a drop down list in a user defined control,which contains some links. I have used this control on my page.I wrote the selectedIndexchanged handler for it and assigned it to, but I don't knowwhy the handler isn't fired. Could you please give me a hint?

Thanks in advance. 

<asp:DropDownList ID="QuickLinkDrp" runat="server" Width="254px" CssClass="quickLink_drp" OnSelectedIndexChanged="drpClick" >

<asp:ListItem>Mail Registratino</asp:ListItem>

<asp:ListItem>Help Desk</asp:ListItem>

</asp:DropDownList>

case 1: Response.Redirect("http://intranet:8080urd"); break;

I think the event delegate is not properly set. Follow the below steps.

1) Select the dropdown in design mode and click on properties.

2) Select the lightning bolt icon on top of the property sheet and click on the "SelectedIndexChanged" event.

3) Enter the method name "drpClick" you have written in the code behind to handle this event.

4) Click Save and build the app. Re-run. It should work now.

Hope this helps.

set autopostback to true

<asp:DropDownList ID="QuickLinkDrp" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true"  Width="254px" CssClass="quickLink_drp" OnSelectedIndexChanged="drpClick" >

Oh Thanks heaps! You saved my day. It works fine now!
