Is there a better way in .NET to preserve the state of say, a dropdown list
other than using hidden fields and the like? I've noticed that the method
"SelectedIndexChanged" of a dropdown list is only called when "Autopostback"
is true. This seems to defeat the purpose altogether.
When I change the value in a dropdown listbox, I want to know what the
ORIGINAL value was so that I can PRESERVE that value when the page is
re-rendered. As it stands, I don't see any method that is fired BEFORE
postback that would allow me to store the original value of the listbox.
Do I just go back to good old fashioned javascript?
