Hello,

I have a WebDropDown whose first entry is a blank item so user can indicate they don't want to select anything. What I'm finding is that the WDD behaves differently in Firefox and IE. The scenario is this: User selects an item other than blank one and then decides they don't want to select anything in the WDD. So they try to select the blank entry.

In Firefox this works as expected. In IE it will not allow the user to select the blank item once another has been selected. The only way to get it to work is to click in the selected entry and press backspace key to erase everything.

Can someone tell me why this is happening and if there is a fix for it?

Here's the code for the WDD:

<ig:WebDropDown ID="wddAppType" runat="server">
     <Items>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Value="">
       </ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text=".Net" Value=".Net"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="AYE Mainframe" Value="AYE Mainframe"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="Java" Value="Java"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="MS Access" Value="MS Access"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="MS Excel" Value="MS Excel"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="PowerBuilder" Value="PowerBuilder"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="VB" Value="VB"></ig:DropDownItem>
       <ig:DropDownItem Selected="False" Text="Other" Value="Other"></ig:DropDownItem>
     </Items>
</ig:WebDropDown>
