I inherited a really weird ASP.NET application where every .aspx page is basically a WebControl that acts as a surface for every other control that page is supposed to render/display.
One such page has a DropDownList -- I wanted a very simple thing that people do every day, namely to cause a postback when user changes a selection in it. I thought all I had to was set dropDownList.AutoPostBack = true, but after the page is rendered, when I see the generated HTML, I notice that there is no "onchange = __doPostBack(...)" code for the dropdownlist. Consequently selection changes don't do anything. Before I spend too much time digging into this, is there something obvious I am missing?
thanks!
