[Solved] RadComboBox - SelectedIndexChanged not firing

[Brad]

My first crack at using the RadCombo box and I have a snag.

I  can't get the SelectedIndexChanged event to fire.


Here is some code. My RadComboBox looks like this

<telerik:RadComboBox
    ID="radCustomSearchDropdown" runat="server" Height="200px" Width="200px" DropDownWidth="298px"
    EmptyMessage="Custom Search"
    HighlightTemplatedItems="true"
    EnableLoadOnDemand="true"
    Filter="StartsWith"
    OnSelectedIndexChanged="radCustomSearchDropdown_SelectedIndexChanged"
    AutoPostBack="true">

    <ItemTemplate>
        <table style="width: 275px" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
            <tr>
                <td style="width: 260px;">
                    <strong><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "Attributes['Title']")%></strong>
                </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td style="width: 260px;">
                    <i><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "Attributes['Description']")%></i>
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:RadComboBox>

And in the code behind the SelectedIndexChanged code looks like this.

protected void radCustomSearchDropdown_SelectedIndexChanged(object o, Telerik.Web.UI.RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChangedEventArgs e)
{
    int CustomSearchID = Convert.ToInt32(e.Value);
    SetLocationSearchByCustomSearchID(CustomSearchID);
}

This code never gets called.
 
Autopostback is true, the event is defined, what more is there?

I solved this.

I was not setting the Text or Value property of the RadComboItem as I constructed the contents of the RadComboBox.

I was doing this..

r.Attributes.Add("Title", dr["cls_Title"].ToString());
r.Attributes.Add("Description", dr["cls_Description"].ToString());
r.Attributes.Add("CustomSearchID", dr["cls_Custom_Location_Search_ID"].ToString());
radCustomSearchDropdown.Items.Add(r);

But needed to do this.

r.Text = dr["cls_Title"].ToString();
r.Value = dr["cls_Custom_Location_Search_ID"].ToString();
r.Attributes.Add("Description", dr["cls_Description"].ToString());
radCustomSearchDropdown.Items.Add(r);
