WebDropDown CurrentValue not set
posted

I have a simple WebDropDown control that I use to select a direction. If I type in a direction and wait half a section, the current value is getting set so I can see it in the CurrentValue property on postback. The problem is that if I'm tabbing through fields and type a direction and hit tab quick enough, I see the text I typed in there but the CurrentValue property on postback is an empty string. How can I get the value that's been typed into the dropdown? Here's my dropdown of directions.

    Hi bhoaglund,

    How are you triggering the postback when you hit the tab key?

    I've used your DropDown with AutoPostBack property set to true, and when I hook on SlectionChanged event of the WebDropDown, both the old and new values are in there set correctly. Or maybe I'm not reproducing your case correctly?

    Please verify,

    Thanks,
