Hi

I am new to .net just wanted to ask how to use the onchange event to link to a new page, i am using asp.net with vb.

i have 2 drop down list boxes but they are not going to the new page they are going to the same page and the only thing that changes is the value on the drop down select box.

<asp:DropDownList id="DropDownList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True">
<asp:ListItem value=""></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/2005/Section_1.aspx">Section 1</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/2006/Section_2.aspx">Section 2</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>

<asp:DropDownList id="DropDownList2" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True">
<asp:ListItem value="/2005/page_1.aspx">Page 1 options</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/2005/page_2.aspx">Page 2 options</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/2005/page_3.aspx">Page 3 options</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/2005/page_4.aspx">Page 4 options</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem value="/2005/page_5.aspx">Page 5 options</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>

thanks for any advice.

I am assuming you want to display the page selected in DropDownList2. If so, you need to redirect once a selection is made in the dropdown. You need to create a SelectedIndexChanged event for DropDownList2 and do something like this in the code:

Response.Redirect(DropDownList2.SelectedValue)
