Hi Peter, I have 3 EasylistBox controls on a page. Oneof them uses the Ajax function while the other two are simple dropdowns that are databound on page load...
Hi Nikhil, Two thoughts on that situation. 1) EasyListBox does some caching the first time around, including creating a DataTable for use in the application...

Hi All, I'm new to this easylistbox control but it seems to have great potencial. Have a few listboxes on one page (about 6) Most of them are small with about...
Welcome to the group! It looks like you need to specify the provider in your connection string; EasyListBox doesn't make any assumptions about which one you...

Thanks Peter, I tried the provider as suggested and received this error when any part of my app tries to reterive data. "Keyword not supported: 'provider'. " ...
Ah, so you need a provider for standard (ELB) data access, but the Oracle Data Access Client doesn't want it! It looks like you have two choices: you can keep...

Not exactly; I meant using the DataReader as the DataSource for the EasyListBox (after setting DataTextField/DataValueField and all that). The data will be...

Did you type something into the combobox? When UseAjax is set to True, ELB only displays items that match the user's input. Peter ... From: OSIRIS1...

You were right, it worked! So if a user just click on the combobox dropdown arrow, they will see nothing until a match is found. I still haven't purchased a...
But if the user wanted to see all the data in the list, is there a way while using ajax? ... see ... demo ... (EasyListBox.com)" ... this ... UseAjax="True" ...
I suppose you could trick it into loading the data all at once after the page loads... but that would kind of negate the benefit of using ajax to fill the list...

Hi, With a standard combobox in .net this code can be used: CampCodeList2.Items.Item(I).Selected = True How would this be done in ELB?...
