Issues with Checkbox list losing Attrubutes on a postback

I have a Datalist which renders a list of checkboxes and value attributes on each of them, when another control fires a postback the value attribute is lost on each of the checkboxes HELP!!!!

Solution

  • In your page_load event you might want to check and see if your binding your datalist. If so, you might want to wrap your databinding method with this:

    if(!Page.IsPostBack)
{
  YourDataBindingMethod();
}

    With this you will check to make sure that it's only loaded on the first page load. Not each time a control fires a postback.

    Hope this helps you.
