Hi all,

I have a dropdown and a textbox and I want to be able to change the textbox to a dropdown control, after a certain value in the dropdown is selected.
I have a problem in changing the controls from textbox to dropdown.


Any help???

Load a new page which looks similar, but has the dropdown instead of the textbox.

ok this could be a long winded approach to what your after, why not use Javascript to create a Hidden ComboBox Which when the user selects your special choice in the main ComboBox will hide the current text box and show the Hidden ComboBox and vice versa when the result isnt selected. There are alot of tutorials out there that show the basics of this.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I figured that the easiest way will be having two controls and switching between the textbox and the dropdown. Meanwhile hiding the other and vice versa.
It was a pretty simple javascript!

Thanks !
