[Murali Inguva]

Hi,
I tried to add attributes to List Item. The I am trying to add that list
item to dropDown
I dont know why the values are not coming. My code goes some thing like
this.
lst = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem();

lst.Attributes.Add("defaultAmount", item.defaultAmount.ToString());

lst.Attributes.AddAttributes();

lst.Text= item.itemDescription + " -- " + item.defaultAmount.ToString("c") ;

lst.Value=item.itemId.ToString();

cboItems.Items.Add(lst);



Please help me

Hi,

I see, you need to create your own listbox derived from ListBox and
implement it. this task is not trivial, I suggest you put your hands on
