Radiobuttonlist reverts from selected item

[Fuga]

Hi,

I´m guessing this has been asked before. In fact I asked it myself some time ago about a dropdownlist.

However the same solution doesn't seen to work, and I can't find the solution in the forum.

I´m populating a radiobuttonlist in code on page load, allthough not when postback is true (I´ve checked this by the way).

Autopostback is set to true, viewstate is enabled (everywhere I can think of, allthough only in the content page, if that matters)

When I select an item, the postback happens, the populating does not happen, and the selection reverts back to the first item, which was never selected. It really looks stupid.

Nowadays I have the knowledge to do this in javascript, but I would prefer not to. It can´t be that it should work like this, can it? The control would be useless. I want the index that is selected.

Thanks.

Fuga.

The code.

Here you go, sapator. Thanks!

In a sub, called from page load (including the msgbox check, which fires):

        If Page.IsPostBack = True Then
            MsgBox("Postback")
        End If
        If Page.IsPostBack = False Then
            Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Clear()
            Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Add("Placera här")
        End If

and then further down, inside a loop:

            If Me.IsPostBack = False Then
                Dim rbitem As New ListItem
                rbitem.Enabled = False
                rbitem.Text = Left(stRw.Item(3), 45) & "..."
                Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Add(rbitem)
                Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Add("Placera här")
            End If

and the aspx:

                <asp:RadioButtonList ID="RadioButtonList1" runat="server" ForeColor="Black" Font-Size="0.9em" AutoPostBack="True" ViewStateMode="Enabled">
                </asp:RadioButtonList>

so the postback is true, and the populating doesn´t happen, but still the first item gets selected.

And before you ask

I´m using the list to allow the user to chose where to put an item he creates. When doing so, he is only allowed to place the item between already existing item, so as to create "in-between" levels. Hence the disabled items comes from existing data in db, and the enabled items are named "Placera här", which means "place here".

I don't really understand what you want.
This will work:

  Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Page.IsPostBack = True Then
'never put a messagebox in asp.net!
            MsgBox("Postback")
        End If
        If Page.IsPostBack = False Then
            Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Clear()
            Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Add("Placera här")
        End If

        If Me.IsPostBack = False Then
            Dim rbitem As New ListItem
            rbitem.Enabled = False
            rbitem.Text = "something"
            Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Add(rbitem)
            Me.RadioButtonList1.Items.Add("Placera här")
        End If
    End Sub

What exactly is the problem?

What exactly is the problem?

The problem is that the wrong item is selected after postback, which means that it looks bad, and also that I can´t use the value or index in code later on, because it´s always 0.

'never put a messagebox in asp.net!

Why Is there something I don´t know about this? In fact I´m beginning to think you should never put anything in asp.net
