Building a Drop-Down menu in DataView Edit Template
The important things are:
The ID must be unique, this is usually the ff1 style name.
The beginning of the DataBind must have ‘u’ for an edit, I assume this means update. Sometimes it may say ‘I’, this is for new or insert commands.
<SharePoint:FormField runat=”server” id=”ff1{$Pos}” ControlMode=”Edit” FieldName=”ChoiceColumn” ItemId=”{@ID}” __designer:bind=”{ddwrt:DataBind(‘u’,concat(‘ff1’,$Pos),’Value’,’ValueChanged’,’ID’,ddwrt:EscapeDelims(string(@ID)),’@ChoiceColumn’)}”/>
Remember that ff1{$Pos} and ‘ff1’ in the DataBind must be changed and match each other within the control. ff1 can be changed to anything without spaces. Also the FieldName=”ChoiceColumn” should match the proper name you have for the column and the DataBind should match the @ name for the column.
