Hi Anand, try this line of code where u r currently writing the RegisterClientScriptInclude function,replace with this ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(typeof([ur .cs classname here]),"one"," "); company name is a variable that will include the name from ur xml file hope it helps Rajeesh K

from ur code it seems u r not redirecting ur page anywhere. the same page is posted back. As far as the URL not found error , check the "REDIRECT" code u have written and see whether the target page u r specifying exists in ur website. could u post the conn string info as well as the redirect section of ur code. Regards, Rajeesh Did u know-Maths Illiteracy affects 9 out of 7 people

hi Aruna, From ur query it seems u want to pass a value from one page to another and set that value as the selected Text of a dropdownlist on page 2 when page 2 loads. right? heres how you can do it.its crude but still. //Code on page 1 param1 = "Good Morning"; param2 = 300; Response.Redirect("default2.aspx?param1=" + param1 + "&param2=" + param2.ToString()); //code on page 2 String param1=""; String param2; param1=request.querystring("param1"); param2=request.querystring("param2").tostring(); DropDownList1.Items.Add(param1); DropDownList1.Items.Add(param2); DropDownList1.SelectedIndex = DropDownList1.Items.Count - 1(when new items are added to a dropdownlist they get appended to the end of the list of items.1 denotes the last item,2 would be the second last item etc.) Hope this helps

Hi Anand, the line numbers mentioned in the error message might not be exact, but check if there are elements in the xml file having multiple attributes but without space between each attribute & value pair i.e. some spacing error.
