how to dynamically create controls? ASP.NET

Morpheus

How would i do this....

Ive a dropdown list, contains numbers 1 - 10.

ive ten textboxes hidden underneath it.

Depending on the number chosen i show same number of textboxes.

Anyone know how to do this client side only?

If you want it clientside, use javascript or somesuch scripting language.

isnt it as straight fwd as adding a sub to the selectedindex event of the drop down that says something like :

sub showbuttons(byval intSelectIndex as integer)

if intSelectIndex >= 0 then

button1.visible = true

end if

if intSelectIndex >= 1 then

button2.visible = true

end if

This is reasonably easy if you're willing to postback to the server. You can set AutoPostBack="true" on the drop down list so when they make a selection the page refreshes with the correct number of text boxes displayed. However doing this in javascript is probably more tricky, i.e. I don't know how to do it.

Finally, for an AJAX solution consider Atlas (http://atlas.asp.net). This provides the resonsiveness of client side with the programming model of server side :-)
