Dear,

First I must say that I am not very experienced with web development.
On the other hand, I am writing a web application and I need to refresh data in a combobox without a postback?

Is this possible in an ASP.NET web application?

Greetings
Eddy
 
As far as I know your data would have to be in something like a javascript
array to refresh without a postback. Since the page is static only client
side methods can be run without the postback.

nope, not if you want the data to come from anything on the server

pairs, with 3 comboboxes. The third combobox (values) depends on the
selection of the first (Elements) and the second (Properties) and the
history of items selected in the same session. Some combinations are not
possible, therefore I collect all the previous selections made in an XML
document. Send to the server, server reply with an additional section of
values for the third combobox (values still allowed due to the previous
selections made).
 
Possible options are :
- you could embed all the data in your page and have some client side
javaScript code updating the combo
- you could use an hidden inline frame that allows to calls a web page on
the server. This page returns the data needed to refresh the combo...
