Introduction It helps us to add an item to a radio buttonlist from a Hashtable. The code Code: <script runat="server"> sub Page_Load if Not Page.IsPostBack then dim mycountries=New Hashtable mycountries.Add("N","Norway") mycountries.Add("S","Sweden") mycountries.Add("F","France") mycountries.Add("I","Italy") rb.DataSource=mycountries rb.DataValueField="Key" rb.DataTextField="Value" rb.DataBind() end if end sub sub displayMessage(s as Object,e As EventArgs) lbl1.text="Your favorite country is: " & rb.SelectedItem.Text end sub </script> <html> <body> <form runat="server"> <asp:RadioButtonList id="rb" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" onSelectedIndexChanged="displayMessage" /> <p><asp:label id="lbl1" runat="server" /></p> </form> </body> </html>
