Html.DropDownList and dojo.byId
September 16th, 2008
Ok, so maybe I’m doing it wrong..(that’s what she said)…and it would not be the first time.
dojo.byId(‘name’).value fails when using the Html Helper “Html.DropDownList” from ASP.NET MVC PR5 as seen below
1: <%'=Html.DropDownList("", "search_form_filter", ViewData())%>
Er..um…could it just be that dojo.byId does not return the display text when value is not explicitly defined in the dropdown…yeah..that’s probably it.
