>>I've been trying to get a multiselect dropdownlist from Infragistics (WebDropDown) to work for the last couple of weeks w/no luck. Server events absolutely do not fire. I can load the list, set selections, and have it display and react properly to the user, but when I postback and try to retrieve the selected items, all that is selected is what I programatically set when loading the form. No client selections are retained.

For this project we are using the Infragistics controls (bought and paid for). I'm open to a switch on my next project - The Infragistics controls are really nice when you get them to work, but getting them to work is a real PITA sometimes.
