Hi,
I have two drop down lists inside of two different fields in a detailsview, the first one determines the values of the second one.
When i select a value from the first ddl autopostback erases all data already in the detailsview and reverts the first dropdownlist back to the first selection.
Also when i select from the list (change the ddl selection more than once) it will throw a :
Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.
