One can set it to be expanded on load as well as to not collapse on blur, but is there a way to force it to always be expanded? Various events will still collapse it and make the app look clunky. :< 

i would like to use it like a listbox but with the filtering of a combobox (letter decoration of matched strings, etc ). I currently do it with standard asp.net listbox control and textbox control but want the rich text, etc. :>

 Thanks.

Hi Henry,

You could use the OnClientDropDownClosing client-side event, which occurs before the drop-down list to close.To prevent closing of the drop down, please consider the following approach:

<script type="text/javascript">
      function OnClientDropDownClosing(sender, eventArgs) {
          eventArgs.set_cancel(true);
       }
  </script>
