[Solved] how to reset back to initial state with emptyMessage and no selected items? serverside

[a]

Hi,

have a simple comboBox  that initiall displays an emptyMessage ( like "please select").
ComboBox is set to autopostback and AllowCustomMessage is true

Can't seem to find a way to reset the comboBox to it's initial state from servers side.

Tried setting selectedIndex to something like -1, but that doesn't work.

thanks

Try with:

combo.ClearSelection();
combo.Text = string.Empty;

Hope this helps.
