Say you have a few DropDownLists that filter data:
Car Make: [Ford,Chevrolet,etc]
Car Year: [2010, 2009, 2008, etc]
Car Model: [LT, SLT, etc]
And you make a selection and not show that DDL again. Is there any standard place to maintain previously selected values? This is for a “drill down” menu system.
You can store in in a hidden field or you could store it in the session. I prefer to keep data out of the session. I’d just stick it in a hidden field and rebuild your state each on each request.
