Although I have a few workarounds in mind to try, I thought I'd ask some of you ASP.NET braniacs if there is an easier way to do this.I have a Formview which is bound to a method using SelectMethod. I have two dropdownlist bound to two other methods which basically add "options" to the record displayed in the Formview. I am trying to use the Routing feature in ASP.NET 4.5 (Visual Studio 2012). Using GetRouteUrl, I can populate my URL string with all of the values of my form, except for the two Dropdownlists. I know this can be done in Code-behind, but I'm wondering if there is a way to refer to the selected value in my HTML source code?My Source code looks like this:\[code\] <asp:FormView ID="FormView1" runat="server" ItemType="LoveDat.Models.ProductDetail" SelectMethod="GetProduct" OnPageIndexChanging="FormView1_PageIndexChanging"> <ItemTemplate> <table> <tr style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold"> <td> <h1><%#:Item.ProductName %></h1> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="vertical-align: top"> <b>Description:</b><br /><%#:Item.Description %><br /><span><b>Price:</b> <%#: String.Format("{0:c}", Item.UnitCost) %></span><br /> <span><b>Product Number:</b> <%#:Item.SKU %><br /><span><b>Quantity:</b><asp:TextBox ID="Quantity" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Visible="False" Text="<%#: Item.ProductImage %>"></asp:TextBox></span><br /> </span><br /> <br /> <span> <asp:Label ID="SizeLabel" runat="server" Text="Select Size:" Width="1in" Font-Bold="True" /> <asp
ropDownList ID="DropDownList2" runat="server" SelectMethod="GetSizes" DataTextField="SizeName" DataValueField="SizeID" > </aspropDownList> </span> <br /> <br /> <br /> <a href='http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13853551/<%#: GetRouteUrl("AddToCartRoute", new {ProductID = Item.ProductID, ColorID = Eval("DropdownList1"), SizeID = Eval("SizeID"), Quantity= Eval("Quantity") }) %>' ><asp:Image runat="server" ImageUrl="~/Images/AddToCart.gif"/></a><span class="ProductListItem"> </span> </a> </td> </tr> </table> </ItemTemplate>\[/code\]I'm looking for something to replace the "Eval(Dropdownlist1)" and "Eval(Dropdownlist2)" references, which of course do not work.Any suggestions?
