Question

I have a following code:

foreach (ListItem item in lstCreate.Items)
{
    if (item.Selected)
        strCreateNewVideoCategory += item.Value + ":0,";
    else
        strCreateNewVideoCategory += item.Value + ":1,";
}

Am using this procedure,item.Selected is false every time,even when am selecting an item from the list of items.what am i doing wrong?

Note: ListItem using a user control (ascx).

1. You must try with this code for binding

   if (!IsPostback)
   { 
       BindYourControl();
   }
   

   Because you load and bind your control every time that you post, so you erase the selected value

2. Use the ViewState in order to persist.

   EnableViewState = true;
