ListSearch doesnt work with Dropdownlist AutoPostBack

ListSearch works fine finding a specific item on a dropdownlist, but doesn't fire an AutoPostBack event when I tab over (or tab out).

I found this 3rd party add-on control that does exactly what I'm looking for, but was wondering if there's a similar dropdownlist available from Microsoft.


Check out the "Contact Information" section.

Also, any easy way to display the prompt text "left" of the dropdownlist. Apparently, there are only two options: top or bottom.

Thanks.


Hi,

You can use the following code to force a postback when the dropdownlist losts focus.


string script = ClientScript.GetPostBackEventReference(DropDownList1, "");
DropDownList1.Attributes.Add("onblur", script);

Hope this helps.


That did the trick! Thanks!!
