CascadingDropDown with a ContextKey RRS feed

  • Question

  • User-1882612923 posted

    I am trying to use a ContextKey in my cascading drop down list but the overloaded method is not being called.

     This is my cascading drop down:

    <ajax:CascadingDropDown ID="ddlCarsExtender" runat="server"

    Category="Cars"

    TargetControlID="ddlCars"

    PromptText="Select a Car"

    LoadingText="[ Loading Cars ]"

    ContextKey="x1"

    ServiceMethod="GetDropDownContents"

    ServicePath="~/Controls/MyDDLWebService.asmx" />

     

    In my web service my method signiture looks like this:

    public AjaxControlToolkit.CascadingDropDownNameValue[] GetDropDownContents(string knownCategoryValues, string category)

    {

    ....

    }

    As soon as I try to add a ContextKey string parameter to the method, the method no longer gets called.  I even tried puting the UseContextKey attribute into my drop down list with no success.

    How do I get the ContextKey variable passed into the method?
