Question

Issue adding on change event to a control.

I currently have a page that uses this in the aspx page to declare a dropdownlist

 <select class="dropdownPhase" />

I am trying to add a on change event to the above dropdownlist something like what i did on another page. the problem is i cannot change it to be declared like a normal dropdownlist is it possible to add the onchange event?

<asp:DropDownList ID="dropdownPhase"  onchange="ApplicationRecording.prototype.onPhaseChange1(this,$(this).closest('tr'));"  />

You can add the client-side event to the DropDownList in code:

dropdownPhase.Attributes["onChange"] = "someJavaScriptFunction();";

You might have to set AutoPostBack to False.

Hope this helps.
