Learn C# ASP.NET MVC WCF SQL Angular: Cascading DropDown List in ASP.NET C#

In this article, I am going to explain how to code for cascading dropdown list in asp.net c#

Step 1

In VS File->New->WebSite->ASP.NET Empty WebSite->OK

Step 2

At the Solution Explorer. Right Click at Solution Explorer->Add New Item

Step 3

After Clicking on New Item. Select Web Service and rename it to "CascadingDropDownList.asmx.cs" and then click ADD Button

Step 5

Add the refrence of Ajax Contol ToolKit at Solution Explorer
Step 6
After Adding the ToolKit , Write code in (DropdownWebService.cs)

using System;

using System.Collections;

using System.Web;

using System.Web.Services;

using System.Web.Services.Protocols;

using System.Data.SqlClient;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Collections.Specialized;

using AjaxControlToolkit;

using System.Configuration;

using System.Data;

/// <summary>

/// Summary description for DropdownWebService

/// </summary>

[WebService(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/")]

[WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]

[System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService()]

public class DropdownWebService: System.Web.Services.WebService

{

[WebMethod]

public CascadingDropDownNameValue[] BindStatedropdown(string knownCategoryValues, string category)

{

SqlConnection constate = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["sqlconnection"].ConnectionString);

constate.Open();

SqlCommand cmdstate = new SqlCommand("select StateCode, StateName from tbl_StateMaster", constate);

cmdstate.ExecuteNonQuery();

SqlDataAdapter dastate = new SqlDataAdapter(cmdstate);

DataSet dsstate = new DataSet();

dastate.Fill(dsstate);

constate.Close();

List<CascadingDropDownNameValue> statedetails = new List<CascadingDropDownNameValue>();

statedetails.Add(new CascadingDropDownNameValue("Select State", "0"));

foreach (DataRow dtstaterow in dsstate.Tables[0].Rows)

{

string stateID = dtstaterow["StateCode"].ToString();

string statename = dtstaterow["StateName"].ToString();

statedetails.Add(new CascadingDropDownNameValue(statename, stateID));

}

return statedetails.ToArray();

}

[WebMethod]

public CascadingDropDownNameValue[] BindRegiondropdown(string knownCategoryValues, string category)

{

int stateID;

StringDictionary statedetails = AjaxControlToolkit.CascadingDropDown.ParseKnownCategoryValuesString(knownCategoryValues);

stateID = Convert.ToInt32(statedetails["State"]);

SqlConnection conregion = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["sqlconnection"].ConnectionString);

conregion.Open();

SqlCommand cmdregion = new SqlCommand("select CityCode,CityName from tbl_CityMaster where StateCode=@StateID", conregion);

cmdregion.Parameters.AddWithValue("@StateID", stateID);

cmdregion.ExecuteNonQuery();

SqlDataAdapter daregion = new SqlDataAdapter(cmdregion);

DataSet dsregion = new DataSet();

daregion.Fill(dsregion);

conregion.Close();

List<CascadingDropDownNameValue> regiondetails = new List<CascadingDropDownNameValue>();

regiondetails.Add(new CascadingDropDownNameValue("select", "0"));

foreach (DataRow dtregionrow in dsregion.Tables[0].Rows)

{

string regionID = dtregionrow["CityCode"].ToString();

string regionname = dtregionrow["CityName"].ToString();

regiondetails.Add(new CascadingDropDownNameValue(regionname, regionID));

}

return regiondetails.ToArray();

}

Step 7
After writing the code in (DropdownWebService.asmx.cs). Again write click at Solution Explorer ->Add New Item->Web Form->(rename CascadingDropDown.aspx)

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="CascadingDropDown.aspx.cs"

Inherits="CascadingDropDown" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

</head>

<body>

<asp:ToolkitScriptManager ID="ToolkitScriptManager1" runat="server">
