I have file called "test.aspx".
In "test.aspx" I have this code:

<asp:DropDownList runat="server" id="chooseDay" >
<asp:ListItem value='<%#strday%>' Selected=True ><%#strday%> </asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem>2</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem>3</asp:ListItem>
.
.
.
</asp:DropDownList>


In "test.aspx.vb" I have this code:

    Public strday As Integer = DateTime.Today.Day()
    Public strmounth As Integer = DateTime.Today.Month()
    Public stryear As Integer = DateTime.Today.Year()

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

   Page.DataBind()
END sub


I get this Error massage
Parser Error Message: Code blocks are not supported in this context.


What's the problem and how to fix it??

Hi lior,
you recive that error because of the red text
<asp:ListItem value='<%#strday%>' Selected=True ><%#strday%> </asp:ListItem>
Secondly,you cant bind ListItem objects ... if you do you will face this error,
'System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem' does not contain a definition for 'DataBinding'

'System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem' does not contain a definition for 'DataBinding'

I'm getting following abouve error in the following code

<ItemTemplate>
   <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlbContractType" Runat="server">
    <asp:ListItem Value="eContract"/>
    <asp:ListItem Value="Print" Selected='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "AType") %>/>
   </asp:DropDownList>
</ItemTemplate>

Use the properties window to set the databindings properties for the drop down list.

Still i'm getting the same error message
