Thank you.
>If there is a difference, it will be negligible. You still need the items in an HTML dropdown. This would get filled when the page is generated on the server (just like in ASP.Net) or via an AJAX call from the page.

>>I am wondering at one aspect of an ASP.NET application - drop-down list of some sort. For example, say a form has a pull-down list control of Customers. In ASP.NET Web Forms app I would fill a dataset/datatable form the DB table and bind the drop-down control to the datatable. So the entire list of, e.g. Customers, is converted into HTML values. Therefore, my understanding is that the speed of the page depends on how large the HTML page is (depending on number of records in the dataset).

>>How is it different in the MVC design? In terms of speed? The data still has to be bound to a drop-down list, right? How is it done, in a very general explanation?
>>TIA.
