    Hello, I know that Focus is a client-side event but is there a way to call a server-side event in my code-behind file in reponse to focus change in a DropDownList? Something like, 1. Handle the focus in the javascript in the .aspx file 2. call a server-side method inside that javascript event handler? Is that possible at all? If yes a code sample would help, becasue whatever I tried did not seem to work. THanks for reading!

      You can force a postback by examining the javascript that does it in general. Or you can make an AJAX call.

      Christian Graus Please read this if you don't understand the answer I've given you "also I don't think "TranslateOneToTwoBillion OneHundredAndFortySevenMillion FourHundredAndEightyThreeThousand SixHundredAndFortySeven()" is a very good choice for a function name" - SpacixOne ( offering help to someone who really needed it ) ( spaces added for the benefit of people running at < 1280x1024 )
