Listbox sort property? 1

[fiat2]

Hello All,
Using VS2005 & .NET 2.0

I have a list box on an .aspx page. This list box will contain numerous product entries. Is there a way to sort through it based on key entries from a user?

e.g.

a
a1
a4
ac (#4)
c  (#5)
c1
c2
etc...

So if the user were to key in 'ac' it would highlight entry # 4 rather than #5. Currently, it treats it keystroke as seperate entries, as an 'a' then 'c' rather than 'ac'

I hope this is clear. Please ask if it is not.

Thanks.

You would have to write code for that, most likely javascript. I'm sure there are examples out there. Also look into AJAX and the AJAX toolkit.

As Jim said, the AJAX toolkit has a control that does this:
