Dropdown option

[fabbasey]

Hi,
In VB once we select an option from dropdown menu, we can use function OnChange. Do we have any thing like this in ASP.
Once we select an option from dropdown it will give response right away. No need to submit page.
Please Help!!!!!!

ASP runs your script server-side, .. so unfortunately the answer is no.

You could use Javascript arrays to store addtional data on the client side(browser), and then use these arrays to repolulate your downdown list by using its onchange proprty(assuming thats what u wanted to do ). This would eliminate you needing to go back to the server.

or maybe a better solution....


HTML dropdown options have an onchange proprty. you would need to use Javascript to use this event and then perform a submit on that web page. Once you have submittied to the server can then do what ever processing you need and return the html page you desire.

I have used this technique in the past when I have had a 3 or 4 option list that I wanted repopulate with differnet choices based on a values in another dropdown.

Hope this helps
