Strange behaviour of Dropdownlists..

Hi All,
We have an application page that has several dropdownlists on it. Data enter
ed by the user is extracted from these dropdownlists is being stored in a MS
SQL database.
The problem is that the page works fine 99% of the time. However, there have
been cases where the selection on all dropdownlists has been reset to the f
irst item on the list. We have not been able to reproduce this error on our
development environment, bu
t the error continues to occur, albeit rarely.
Any inputs on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
VamshiThank you for your response, Bruce.
However, I do not think that this error has anything to do with the use of t
he keyboard for input. What actually happens is that *all* dropdowns are bei
ng reinitialized to the first element on the list.
Just to be sure, I did try messing with the keyboard when the page was being
posted back, but was still unable to reproduce the error. Let me know if I'
m missing something.
Thanks and Regards,
Vamshi

if any of the dropdowns are set for postback, you will have trouble if the
user uses the keyboard for entry (uparrow, drownarrow). you need to add
client code to disable the dropdown until the postback has completed.
