I'm a fairly junior .Net developer and am totally stumped on an
issue. I have two applications and in one of them the exact same code
works just fine, but I can't seem to get it to work in the second. I
have created a multiple selection Listbox where I add the items
programatically based on the values that exist in a database. Then,
when I go to retrieve the selected items, the code keeps returning the
first item to me even when I select other items. Here is my code:
string selectedStateValues = string.Empty;
int stateCount = 0;
foreach (ListItem li in lbLocation.Items)
{
if (li.Selected == true)
{
if (stateCount == 0)
{
selectedStateValues += li.Text;
stateCount += 1;
}
else
{
selectedStateValues += " " + li.Text;
}
}
}
The first item in the Listbox is "Show All" and then below that are
various states like VA, MD, NY etc. Even if I select NY, the debugger
shows that "Show All" is selected (when it isn't). I've got
Autopostback set to True and have tried accounting for postback in the
code, but nothing seems to work. Any help anyone could provide would
be great. Thanks!!
