If you set DropDownList.SelectedValue to an item not in the list, shouldn't
an exception be thrown? ie:
<aspropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Text="1" Value="1"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="2" Value="2"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="3" Value="3"></asp:ListItem>
</aspropDownList>
Then in the codebehind:
DropDownList1.SelectedValue = "999";
No exception is thrown, but the docs say:
"The SelectedValue property can also be used to select an item in the list
control by setting it with the value of the item. If no items in the list
control contain the specified value, a System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException is
thrown."
