vb.net - How can I retrieve the string value of the selected select element item? -


a previous question here related.

what find need know, though, more specific, namely, how can retrieve string value of selected select element item?

this i'm using grab value:

subcategory = request.form.item("selectsubcategory").tostring()

...but it's assigning "0" subcategory, no matter item selected.

here everywhere "subcategory" appears in code:

declared:

dim subcategory string

assigned (as shown above):

subcategory = request.form.item("selectsubcategory").tostring()

database write:

query2 &= "set subcategory = @subcat " . . . .parameters.add("@subcat", sqldbtype.nvarchar).value = subcategory

select element code:

<select name="selectsubcategory" color="<%=session("textcolor")%>" style="font: 8pt arial" onchange="updateflag=true;">     <% if not isnewbusiness then%>         <option <% if subcategory = "0" response.write(" selected")%> value="0">existing         <option <% if subcategory = "1" response.write(" selected")%> value="1">organic growth     <% else%>         <option <% if subcategory = "0" response.write(" selected")%> value="0">new         <option <% if subcategory = "1" response.write(" selected")%> value="1">assumed     <% end if%> </select>

why "0" assigned subcategory? how can assign selected item's text value instead?

update

based on other things have read, thought maybe needed decorate select element "runat="server"" jazz. when did that, so:

<select name="selectsubcategory" runat="server" color="<%=session("textcolor")%>" style="font: 8pt arial" onchange="updateflag=true;">

i got this:

parser error  description: error occurred during parsing of resource required service request. please review following specific parse error details , modify source file appropriately.   parser error message: server tags cannot contain <% ... %> constructs.  source error:   line 767:                                        </td> line 768:                                        <td nowrap align="left" valign="top"> line 769:                                            <select name="selectsubcategory" runat="server" color="<%=session("textcolor")%>" style="font: 8pt arial" onchange="updateflag=true;"> line 770:                                            <%--<asp:dropdownlist name="selectsubcategory" color="<%=session("textcolor")%>" style="font: 8pt arial" onchange="updateflag=true;">--%> line 771:                                                <% if not isnewbusiness then%>  source file: /ems/pages/custmaint_entry.aspx    line: 769

to paraphrase pulitzer-prize-winning hero of hibbing,

update 2

it happened again; no changes code (or, more precisely, trying under sun , reverting tried, didn't work before), works. las campanas del infierno!

i still or having this:

subcategory = request.form.item("selectsubcategory").tostring()

...and this:

<select name="selectsubcategory" color="<%=session("textcolor")%>" style="font: 8pt arial" onchange="updateflag=true;">

...and @ works, whereas didn't before.

i can't tell y'all how glad getting out of programming; don't think stand more week of this. burned out? i'm charred smoldering crisp.
