I’m handling the onSelectIndexChanged event. An event is raised when the DropDownList selection changes. the problem is that the DropDownList still returns the old values for SelectedValue and SelectedIndex. What am I doing wrong?
Here is the DropDownList definition from the aspx file:
<div style='margin: 0px; padding: 0px 1em 0px 0px;'> <span style='margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: top;'>Route:</span> <asp:DropDownList id='Select1' runat='server' onselectedindexchanged='index_changed' AutoPostBack='true'> </asp:DropDownList> <asp:Literal ID='Literal1' runat='server'></asp:Literal> </div>
Here is the DropDownList OnSelectedIndexChanged event handler:
protected void index_changed(object sender, EventArgs e) { decimal d = Convert.ToDecimal( Select1.SelectedValue ); Literal1.Text = d.ToString(); }
Do you have any code in page load that is by chance re-defaulting the value to the first value?
When the page reloads do you see the new value?
