How to Search Through a C# DropDownList Programmatically

Question

I am having a hard time figuring out how to code a series of \"if\" statements that search through different dropdownlists for a specific value entered in a textbox. I was able

Answer 1

foreach (ListItem li in dropdownlist1.Items)
{
    if (li.Value == textBox1.text)
    {
       // The value of the option matches the TextBox. Process stuff here.
    }
}

That is my suggestion for how to see if the value is in the dropdownlist.
