I have a following code in aspx page
<asp:DropDownList ID="txtSupplierCountry" class="form-control" Width="230px" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Text="Select gender" Value="0"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="male" Value="0"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="female" Value="1"></asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
I have a value in database as male/female. I need to set this text using C# code. Basically I am trying to set selected option based on the text from database. I am not getting an idea. I have tried following code but it doesn't work.
String t = "male" // coming from db
txtSupplierCountry.Items.FindByText(t).Selected = true;
when you are saving data Male and Female then why did you keep dropdown values in number like 1,2 etc, change code like this.
<asp:DropDownList ID="txtSupplierCountry" class="form-control" Width="230px" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Text="Select Country" Value="0"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="male" Value="male"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="female" Value="female"></asp:ListItem>
then
txtSupplierCountry.SelectedValue="male";
