  DropDownlist Problem in Web Part

  Apr 03, 2006 10:09 AM|LINK

  Hi,
  I have two dropdownlist one ddl1 and ddl2 in the first time when web part is loaded ddl1 gets types from DB. (types = Region, Country, Company...) and ddl2 is not visible. When you choose one of the types (in ddl1 ), ddl2 would be visible and it gets values from db (for exampel if you choose Countries the values would be USA, Canada, ....)

  The problem is ddl2 is too quick and when first time I choose a type ddl2 contains just "-- select --" nothing more but if you click on a button or any event happens then ddl2 contains the values.

  I have tryed with many other events and code but the following code is nearst to my purpose.
  

  <div></div>

  protected override void CreateChildControls() {      DDL1 = new DropDownList();      DDL1.ID = "DDL1";      DDL1.DataBound += new EventHandler(DDL1_DataBound);      DDL1.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(DDL1_Changed);      DDL1.DataSource = GetTypes();        DDL1.DataTextField = "type";      DDL1.DataValueField = "type";      DDL1.DataBind();      DDL1.AutoPostBack = true;      Controls.Add(DDL1);      DDL2 = new DropDownList();      DDL2.ID = "DDL2";      DDL2.Visible = false;      //DDL2.Load += new EventHandler(DDL2_Load);      DDL2.DataBound += new EventHandler(DDL2_DataBound);      DDL2.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(DDL2_Changed);      DDL2.DataSource = GetValues(DDL1.SelectedValue);      DDL2.DataTextField = "typevalue";      DDL2.DataValueField = "taxonomyid";      DDL2.DataBind();      DDL2.AutoPostBack = true;      Controls.Add(DDL2); } protected void DDL1_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             DDL1.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem("-- Select Type --"));         }         protected void DDL1_Changed(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             DDL2.Visible = true;         }                protected void DDL2_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             string ValueName = "-- Select " + DDL1.SelectedValue.ToString() + " --";             DDL2.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem(ValueName));         }
