DropDownList to DataLIst

Hi

I'm using ASPX Templates and I´ve a page with a DataList control and a DropDOwnList control, i´d like to know how can I pass a value from the DropDownList to the WhereCondition of the DropDownList. I've used the following aproch but did not work, please somebody help me.

<td class="ContainerWithCornersLeft">
<% string valueFromDropDown = "Year(PublishDate)= "+ ano.SelectedValue;
%>
</td>
<td align="left">
<cms:CMSDataList ID="CMSDataList1" runat="server" ClassNames="custom.balancomensais"
SelectedItemTransformationName="custom.balancomensais.Default" TransformationName="custom.balancomensais.preview"
RepeatColumns="1" EnablePaging="True"
WhereCondition="<%=valueFromDropDown%>">
</cms:CMSDataList>
</td>

In this case any time you change the value in dropdown list it will reload the data in CMSDataList so they match the new value. Best Regards, Martin Dobsicek

RE:DropDownList to DataLIst

Hi,
thanks for your reply, but I already made this, other properties, such as EnablePaging had functioned very well, but the property wherecondition not, can you tell me what is happening here is the code:

protected void button_1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CMSDataListID.WhereCondition = "DataBasecolumn = " + " ' "+DropDownListID.SelectedValue+" ' ";
}


Kentico Developer	kentico_martind - 4/29/2010 2:48:11 AM RE:DropDownList to DataLIst Hello, It's necessary to reload data after you set properties in code-behind. Please add following sample code into end of button_1_Click method: CMSDataListID.ReloadData(true); Best Regards, Martin Dobsicek
