Problem retaining values of dropdownlist controls after postback

Guest

Hi,

Trouble in retaining values of dropdownlist, textboxes, and other
controls when
dropdownlist selectedindexchanged event is triggered, the controls are
inside a user control and this user control inside a parent user control with
an update panel. Can you guys help me hwo to retain the values. I have set
EnableViewState to true. Where is correct page event to store entered and
selected values before the values on controls are re-intialized.

Some of the codes:
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
....
this.UpdateContent();
base.OnLoad(e);

if (multiView.GetActiveView().ID == "viewInputForm")
{
if (Session["id"] != null)
ShowAssessmentDetails(Session["id"].ToString());
DisplayProcessedIconImage();
}
}

//All Dropdown SelectedIndexChanged Event
protected void DropDown_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (sender == this.ddlEmployee)
{
...
}
else if (sender == this.ddlCategory)
{
FillSubCategoryList();
FillCompetencyList();
}
else if (sender == this.ddlSubCategory)
{
if (ddlSubCategory.SelectedIndex != 0)
{
int subcat = Int32.Parse(ddlSubCategory.SelectedValue);

ddlCategory.SelectedValue = oAssessment.GetCategoryID(subcat);
FillSubCategoryList();
ddlSubCategory.SelectedValue = subcat.ToString();
if (subcat.ToString() != string.Empty && subcat.ToString() != "0")
ViewState["ddlSubCategory"] = subcat.ToString();
}

FillCompetencyList();
}
else if (sender == this.ddlCompetencyCode)
{
UpdateCompetencyList(1);
DoCourseCodeMatching();
}
else if (sender == this.ddlCompetency)
{
UpdateCompetencyList(2);
DoCourseCodeMatching();
}
else if (sender == this.ddlCourseCode)
{
ClearSuggestedTrainingData();
//FillTrainingData();
DoCourseCodeMatching();
}
else if (sender == this.ddlYear)
{
...
}
else if (sender == this.ddlCompetencyModel)
{
FillCategoryList();
FillSubCategoryList();
FillCompetencyList();
}
...
}

Hi,
You can store the values in hidden fields(probably in
dropdown-selectedindexchange event)

It may be occuring for either one of two probable reasons.

1) You may be switching active view of MultiView between posts, which
may be causing state of some items in inactive views being lost across
post. In this case you may want to use something other than MultiView
(e.g. div with style="display:none/block").
2) Some parent in hierarchy of your control may have viewstate
disabled.

(if you are using FormView, also make sure it is not switching
apparently similar looking insert/update modes)

Thanks Manish and Muhammad,

This problem has been resolved...

A co-worker has helped solved this problem.

string postBackTrigger = Request.Params["__EVENTTARGET"];
if (postBackTrigger.Contains(ddlCategory.UniqueID))
{
category = Request.Form[ddlCategory.UniqueID].Tostring() ?? "0";
}
