I am creating a dynamic dropdownlist in asp.net which is under asp:listview control code is as below:
<asp:ListView runat="server" ID="lst" OnItemDataBound="lst_dataBound">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" CssClass="test" ID="ddl"></asp:DropDownList>
<asp:HiddenField runat="server" ID="hf" Value='<%# Eval("Id") %>' />
<a class="btn btn-success" id='<%#Eval("ID") %>' onclick="Add('<%#Eval("ID")%>')>Add</a>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:ListView>
on the server side I have given source and bind the list and on item databound event I have bound dropdownlist which is perfectly but as shown above when I click on an anchor tag I want selected item from drop down for that I have tried this:
var item = $('.test option:selected').text();
alert(item);
which is giving me all list items like if i have 10 list so 10 dropdowns so if each have 4 items take text as(1,2,3,4) selected item at each list so randomly it will ("1212134232") which is 10 item in alert but I want single one so I tried another solution I give dynamic cssclass at server side like this
DropDownList myDDL = (DropDownList)e.Item.FindControl("ddl");
HiddenField HF_ID = (HiddenField)e.Item.FindControl("hf");
myDDL.ID = "test" + HF_ID.Value;
so now I have dynamic class name I can access them at jQuery - JavaScript so code which I use them for is
here id is which I will get from function parameter
var test = "test" + id;
var item = $('.test option:selected').text();
alert(item);
here it should give the right answer but it is not giving it so I try further I inspect element and see if this working and yes its working dynamic css class they have so I have think further and tried like if dynamic side name given like test20, test21, etc... y not try static value so I tried
var item = $('.test20 option:selected').text();
alert(item);
and yes its working it is giving me specific dropdown list selected value but this can't be done for statically so I needed help here.
rendered html is:
<select class="test29" id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lst_ddl_5" name="ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$lst$ctrl5$ddl">
<option value="85">1</option>
<option value="86">2</option>
<option value="87">3</option>
<option value="88">4</option>
</select>
