DropDown Description

DropDown is an ASP.NET AJAX extender that can be attached to almost any ASP.NET control to provide a SharePoint-style drop-down menu. The displayed menu is merely another panel or control. In the above sample the drop-down is a Panel which contains LinkButtons. The drop-down is activated by left- or right-clicking the attached control. If the behavior is attached to a Hyperlink or LinkButton, clicking on the link itself will operate normally.

 

 DropDown Properties

The control above is initialized with this code. The italic properties are optional:

 

<ajaxToolkit:DropDownExtender runat="server" ID="DDE"

    TargetControlID="TextLabel"

DropDownControlID="DropPanel" />

 

 

l         TargetControlID - The ID of the control which needs a drop-down.

l         DropDownControlID - The ID of the control which will be displayed as the dropdown.

l         Animations - Generic animations for the DropDown extender. See the Using Animations walkthrough and Animation Reference for more details.
