selectlist

noob on stack overflow here. I am working on a webpage that has a transfer job function. This lets the user check a check-box to send the job back to the office, or select a technician from a list of all that are available. My question is how to setup the check-box so that it is checked by default when the page loads and have the select list disabled accordingly. Here is the code that I have for it at the moment: <div ng-app=""> Send to Office: <input type="checkbox" ng-model="checked" ng-checked="true"><br/> <select id="transferTo" ng-disabled="checked"> <option>Tech1</option> <option>Tech2<

I believe this will create a list in my HomeController. But not sure what calls it or where it goes in the Controller beside maybe the first Add ActionResult (GET method). public static IEnumerable<SelectListItem> items() { using (oesacEntities_compact db = new oesacEntities_compact()) { var query = from s in db.tblSponsors select new { s.SponsorID, s.BizName }; return query.AsEnumerable() .Select(x => new SelectListItem { Value=x.SponsorID.ToString(), Text = x.BizName }).ToList(); } } I can't seem to send it to the Add view or to reference it from the Add view: <div class="editor=field">

I am trying to make a dropdown list using DropdownListFor function and I want to have a value selected in it. I have searched a lot and found the similar kind of solution of having a SelectList object in the ViewModel , I tried it something like this In my ViewModel I used a property of type SelectList like this SelectList HoursToSelect = new SelectList(MyDictionaryObject, "Value", "Key", 14/*selected value*/); and I was using it like this @Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.EndsOnHour, HoursToSelect) This all was working fine and fulfilled my requirement completely But the problem is due to my

I'm extending an Enum and, given the following code, selectListItems is a generic List of SelectListItems that has all the correct values for my Enum. The first foreach loop works fine. However, when I create the actual SelectList and pass in selectListItems , all the values are lost. How can I keep those values intact? foreach (SelectListItem item in selectListItems) { string tex = item.Text; string val = item.Value; string sel = item.Selected.ToString(); } SelectList selectList = new SelectList(selectListItems); foreach (SelectListItem slid in selectList) { string tex = slid.Text; string val

Currently our dev team uses this pattern, but I can't help but wonder if there is a faster or more html-efficient way of accomplishing the same task. HTML <select id="myList" style="width: 400px;"> </select> <script id="myListTemplate" type="text/x-jQuery-tmpl"> <option value="${idField}">${name}</option> </script> And this is the Javascript: function bindList(url) { callAjax(url, null, false, function (json) { $('#myList').children().remove(); $('#myListTemplate').tmpl(json.d).appendTo('#myList'); }); } This is a function I wrote to do just that. I'm not sure if it's faster than jQuery

Am I right to think that there is no way to set the selected value in the C# class SelectList after it is created? Isn't that a bit silly? awrigley I think you are fighting the framework. The data going into your views should be created at the Last Possible Minute (LPM). Thinking this way, a SelectList is a type to feed the DropDownList HTML helper. It is NOT a place to store data while you decide how to process it. A better solution would be to retrieve your data into a List<T> and then initialize the SelectList (s) when you need to. An immediate benefit of this practice is that it allows you

(sorry, there are several item here but none seems to allow me to get this working.) I want to create a DropDownList which allows multiple selection. I am able to populate the list but I can't get the currently selected values to seem to work. I have the following in my controller: ViewBag.PropertyGroups = from g in db.eFinGroups where g.GroupType.Contents == "P" select new { Key = g.Key, Value = g.Description, Selected = true }; ViewBag.SelectedPropertyGroups = from g in company.Entities .First().Properties.First().PropertyGroups select new { g.eFinGroup.Key, Value = g.eFinGroup.Description }
