DropDownList not getting SelectedValue from browser

[Schultz]

When using DropDownLists in ASP.NET VB 03 on Windows Server 2003 (IE 6)
the selected values for Databound dropDowns is always the first item in
the list, even after changing the selected item before submitting the
form to do its requested action. The html source does not say that it
is selected, and the binding code does not tell it to change the
selected value. how do I fix this problem?

Basically you need to wrap you DataBinding code in an if Not Page.IsPostBack
then...

I have this same problem. I'm using VS.NET 2003 on XP.

I've been doing CSharp code since Beta 2 of first VS.NET, so I'm pretty
sure I've checked all the basics.
