I have created one mvc3 application.

There is one form where i’m taking values from user.

There is one field called Gender

i want to give a dropdown list for that with values Male and Female

I need an Ajax Helper method for this or any asynchronous script

Answer 1

the easiest way is to do this in Html :

 <select id="selection" name="selection">
     <option value="1">Male</option>
     <option value="2">Female</option>
 </select>

You can also do this with razor :

 @Html.DropDownLiwt("GenderSelection", "Male")

after having done this inside the controler :

 Dim genderSelection As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
 genderSelection.Add("Male")
 genderSelection.Add("Female")

 ViewData("GenderSelection") = New SelectList(genderSelection)
