ASP.NET Mobile SelectionList Control

Definition and Usage

The SelectionList control is used to create a list on a mobile device.

Differences between a SelectionList control and a List control:

  • A SelectionList control supports multiple item selections and the List control only supports single item selections
  • A SelectionList control supports drop-down lists, combo boxes, and radio buttons and the List control only supports common lists

Example 1

The following example is an .aspx page with two forms. The first form has a list of cars. The second form is activated when a car is selected in the first form, and it displays the price of the selected car:

<%@ Page
Inherits="System.Web.UI.MobileControls.MobilePage"%>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="Mobile"
Namespace="System.Web.UI.MobileControls"
Assembly="System.Web.Mobile" %>
<script runat="server">
Sub Car_Click(sender as Object, e as EventArgs)
ActiveForm=f2
t1.text=cars.Selection.Value
End Sub
</script>
<Mobile:Form id="f1" runat="server">
  <Mobile:SelectionList runat="server" id="cars" >
    <Item Text="Volvo" Value="$30,000" />
    <Item Text="BMW" Value="$32,000" />
    <Item Text="Audi" Value="$34,000" />
  </Mobile:SelectionList>
  <Mobile:Command runat="server"
  OnClick="Car_Click" Text="Submit" />
</Mobile:Form>
<Mobile:Form id="f2" runat="server">
  <Mobile:Label id="t1" runat="server" />
</Mobile:Form>

When this page is displayed on a mobile device, the navigation and display functions of the page will be compiled differently for different devices with different display characteristics.

Fore some devices, like a handheld PC, it might display a dropdown list to choose from. For a cell phone it might display a list of options to select from.
