    can javascript do this

    I have a .net page where I display a list of items and allow the user to
    select one or more items and place the items in another text box as being
    selected by clicking an arrow. I currently have two arrows, one to remove
    the selected items from the source box and place them in the destination box
    and another arrow to take the selected items from the destination box and put
    them back in the source textbox. Just wondering if there is a way to do this
    without posting back to the server? I
    Thanks Paul.

      Yes you can.

      There are numerous examples out there. I think the AJAX controls on
      www.asp.net have an example of doing exactly what you want. If not there, I
      believe it is still somewhere on the ASP.NET site.

      You can also use AJAX to avoid the appearance of post back on any pages you
      want to seem more dynamic for the user.

          Re: can javascript do this

          Yep trying to reduce the number of postbacks on the entire form. I
          downloaded the ajax tool kit several months ago so will check it. I am not
          sure how often they update the toolkit with new ajax controls but I may need
          to grab the newest version.
          thanks.

              If you have VS2008, just download SP1 for VS2008 and you have all but the
              futures bits included.

                  still have 2005, found a javascript function that seems to work well for
                  moving items back and forth between list boxes.

                      The cool thing about client side stuff, is you can always upgrade the
                      backend and still continue to use the client stuff. Glad you found something
                      that works.

                      >I have a .net page where I display a list of items and allow the user
                      >to
                      select one or more items and place the items in another text box as
                      being
                      selected by clicking an arrow. I currently have two arrows, one to
                      remove
                      the selected items from the source box and place them in the
                      destination
                      box
                      and another arrow to take the selected items from the destination
                      box
                      and
                      put
                      them back in the source textbox. Just wondering if there is a way
                      to
                      do
                      this
                      without posting back to the server? I
                      Thanks Paul.
