Question

Say I have the following code:

        DropDownList changesList = new DropDownList();

        ListItem item;

        item = new ListItem();
        item.Text = "go to google.com";
        changesList.Items.Add(item);

How do you dynamically add an OnClick event to item so that google.com will be visited after clicking on the item?

Answer 1

Add this to your code:

DropDownList changesList = new DropDownList();

ListItem item;
item = new ListItem();
item.Text = "go to google.com";
item.Value = "http://www.google.com";

changesList.Items.Add(item);
changesList.Attributes.Add("onChange", "location.href = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;");
