Re: Losing Form data
 

Hi Matthew,

Changes made to your listbox items at the client-side won't be automatically
persisted to the server. You will need to write some additional code to make
this happen (ie. posting the list of items in a hidden-form field, parsing
it at the server and updating the Items collection accordingly).
