dropdownlist selectedindex incorrect

[rambleon]

Hi,
I have a dropdown list with 6 items, no matter which one of the items I click the SelectedIndex changes to 1.
Any ideas?

I'm going to take a guess that you want the ASP.Net forum. VB.Net uses combo boxes.

That said, I'm going to take a wild guess that you should look in your page load event and see if you are binding or loading the drop down list there. if so, put that code in a if not page.ispostback block.

Rick,
The loading and binding is in a - If Not Page.IsPostback block.
The code only works for the 1st and 2nd items in the list (SelectedIndex = 0 or 1)

I would double check your code and make sure that nothing else is setting the selected index and that the combo box maintains state.

If that all checks out, I'd say head over to the ASP.Net forum and see if they can help you.

Rick could you please expand on 'maintains state', I'm new to this.
I've posted the code in the asp.net forum if you're intrested.
