Hi,

Thanks for your reply. While working on this, I got another problem. Actually, I am loadiing the items into a webdropdown using

the below code:

webdropdown1.loadItems(webdropdown2_value,false);

alert("value:" + webdropdown1.get_items().getItem(0).get_value());

Problem is when I have loaded the new items above into the webdropdown1, the alert value statement is still showing me the index 0 element which was there in the dropdown1 before loading the new items. Is there a problem that changes are not getting reflected in the client-side. The dropdown clearly shows the correct items have been loaded when I open the dropdown and look at the items. Do i need to change some property values of the webdropdown. Because, once I am able to retrieve the correct item after loading, then I can use your code to select that item.

Hi Nikifor,

I don't have any other browser apart from IE. I am able to reproduce the behaviour with your sample. Please find your updated sample.

I have increased the number of items in webdropdown2 to 3 by adding "Z" value as well when "2" is selected in webdropdown1.

Also, I have added the below two lines in the AJAXResponse javascript function:

            var ddLength = ig_controls.WebDropDown2.get_items().getLength();
            alert("Number of items in webdropdown2:" + ddLength);

to check the number of items in webdropdown2 after AJAX Response comes. It shows the old values and not the count of newly loaded items.

I want to do some processing on the new items after getting the new items in the AJAX Response. but since this is not working, I am stuck here.

Is this behavior reproducible with the sample i have attached? Because i have tested this sample with FF 14, Opera 12, IE 9 and Chrome and none of the browsers shows this behavior. All the browsers show the new loaded values with the sample

Hi Nikifor,

I was asking for a solution to the AJAX response problem. Whatever solution you have given will not work till the AJAX response fix is done.

Problem Description: When ItemsRequested event is called and control goes to server-side to load a webdropdown with new values and after that, when a AJAX response comes to client-side, it still shows the old items in the response. When ItemsRequested event is called again, then the AJAX response shows the previous response and that's how it is working.

Ideal behaviour: When AJAX response is handled at client-side, it should show the newly loaded items so that validations can be done on the client-side for the new items.

Please provide some temporary solution to this problem if you don't have a permanent solution now. And when we can expect a permanent solution.

Hello Sunil,

Please use this temporary workaround:

function mySelector() {

var dd = ig_controls.WebDropDown2;

if (dd.get_selectedItemIndex() > -1) {

                dd.get_selectedItem().unselect();

            }

            dd.get_items().getItem(0).select();

var vtd = dd.get_items().getItem(0).get_text()

            dd.set_currentValue(vtd,

true);

            dd._elements[

"Input"].value = vtd;

        }

Hi Nikifor,

Just checking to know how much time it will take to solve the issue? If it is going to take weeks, then please suggest some alternate solution/workaround for this issue.
