Hi,

In my aspx page the DropdownList Items are getting binded when the page is not post back(first time loading) but when I clicked any button like (save ,edit)( all the drop down List items are getting Cleared.

can any one plz help, am i missing any settings for the dropdown list.

I put
Page.EnableViewState = true;
above the If(!ispostback)

The code inside the If(!IsPostback)
is
Parameters param = new Parameters();
DataSet datasetddlInternetwght = new DataSet();
datasetddlInternetwght = param.GetDDLListInternetWght();
ddlIntrntweight.DataTextField = datasetddlInternetwght.Tables[0].Columns["paramname"].ToString();
ddlIntrntweight.DataValueField = datasetddlInternetwght.Tables[0].Columns["paramvalue"].ToString();
ddlIntrntweight.DataSource = datasetddlInternetwght;
ddlIntrntweight.DataBind();


where Parameters is a class in a separate .cs file. I am getting the Data binded when the Page is loaded for the first time but when any button got clicked the items in the Drop down list(ddlIntrntweight) are getting cleared. i enabled the View state for the Drop down list;
