Urgent Help: Unable to get value from Drop DownList

Avatar

Level 4

Hi All,

There is a situation where I need to get the value from dropdown list just by scrolling over it.

I have a dropdown list.There are certain items in it. When I change the items using keyboard's UP & DOWN Keys (Not commiting seletion by ENTER or MOUSE Click) change event fires but I am not getting the value of the visible item in dropdown.

It shows the value of Last Selected item everytime when I do this.rawValue, which I didn't want. I need the value of the current visible item in the box.

I hope you understand the problem.

Pls gimme the solution for this.

Try using the "event.newText" to get the selected item value from the change event.

Thanks Srini Dhulipalla,

I have tried that and I was able to get the current text from the list... but I need to get the value for that label (newText) cuz I am using that unique value everywhere. At this time i cannot get the value just getting the Text. It will force me a lot of work if I do handle it by using the Text instead of value. Any Help.

Thanks.
