Asp – List of Links

ajaxasp.netvb.net

I have two tables, one for Regions and one for those regions Areas, i want to automatically create a list of links that will be like:

Region1
a.Area1
b.Area2
c.Area3
Region2
a.Area1
etcetc

This link should be generated automatically when i load my page.
The items in the list are not only text, when i click on Area1 i will call a function passing Area1 Region1 IDs to do some action in my function, keep in mind that the user might click Area1 from Region1 or might just click Region1.

I am using asp.net 3.5 and vb.net
Any help or suggestion will be deeply appreciated

I think the reason your question is not getting answered is that it involves too many fundamentals. if someone writes all this for you from scratch you'll have difficulty taking it any further. I would recommend looking at some ASP.NET beginners articles, work out how to write code which reacts to control events (e.g. LinkButton clicks), how to query a database, how to dynamcially populate a page etc. Then, if you have any more specific questions, ask again.

C# – When should I use a List vs a LinkedList

In most cases, List<T> is more useful. LinkedList<T> will have less cost when adding/removing items in the middle of the list, whereas List<T> can only cheaply add/remove at the end of the list.

LinkedList<T> is only at it's most efficient if you are accessing sequential data (either forwards or backwards) - random access is relatively expensive since it must walk the chain each time (hence why it doesn't have an indexer). However, because a List<T> is essentially just an array (with a wrapper) random access is fine.

List<T> also offers a lot of support methods - Find, ToArray, etc; however, these are also available for LinkedList<T> with .NET 3.5/C# 3.0 via extension methods - so that is less of a factor.

Javascript – Change the selected value of a drop-down list with jQuery

jQuery's documentation states:

[jQuery.val] checks, or selects, all the radio buttons, checkboxes, and select options that match the set of values.

This behavior is in jQuery versions 1.2 and above.

You most likely want this:

$("._statusDDL").val('2');
