dropdownlist selectedindex=-1

hi
I want to display a populated dropdownlist, put I don't want to select
any item at first. I don't want to put a text at first like "selecy an
item" or "-" or a blank item...

selectedindex=-1 doesn't work, apparently I can't do that in web
(although it works on windows app).

any suggestions ?
thx

Re: dropdownlist selectedindex=-1

You'll have to break down and put in the blank item. You can always remove
it after the postback.
