Hi,

Senario: i have a dropdownlist which is bound to a lookup table.

question: how do i insert headings into the dropdownlist which cannot
be selected, without altering the selected values of the other bound
items?

Thanks.

Hi

Just use the following code:

ListItem item = new ListItem("Header", "somevalue");
ddlCategory.Items.Insert(0, item);
// OR //
ddlCategory.Items.Insert(0, "Header");

Show quoteHide quote

how do i disable the item so the user can't select it?

ListItem li = new ListItem("Text", "Value");
li.Enabled = false;
