CheckboxList not setting Selected with Viewstate
- by Earlz
I have a CheckboxList that seems to load and do everything right, except for when I do a postback, it will not have the Item.Selected property set. I have viewstate disabled for the entire page.
I load it like so(inside Page_Load on every load):
foreach (DataRow service in d.Tables[0].Rows)
{
cblServices.Items.Add(new ListItem((string)service["description"], service["id"].ToString()));
}
My markup is simple:
<asp:CheckBoxList runat="server" ID="cblServices" Width="300px"></asp:CheckBoxList>
and then, I use basically something like this(in a _Click serverside event for a button)
foreach(ListItem item in cblServices.Items){
if(item.Selected){
MyLabel.Text+="selected: "+item.Value+item.Text;
}
}
and MyLabel never has any text added to it. I can verify with the debugger that it does reach the _Click's foreach loop, but no item is ever selected. What could be the cause of this?
