Hi,
Is there a way to clear a DropDownList from code behind, something similar
to myDropDownList.length=0 on the client?

Thanks.
 
Hi,

This should work:

document.getElementById('dropdownlistname').options.length = 0;

Good luck! Ken.

Click to expand...

The DropDownList has an Items property with methods for adding and
removing ListItems. There's Clear(), which will remove *all* items
(DDLID.Items.Clear()), and there's also methods like Add(), Insert(),
Remove(), and RemoveAt().
