Well, if you know how to populate a html selectbox using javascript, then you
will know how to populate asp:dropdownlist. Basically, asp:dropdownlist will
generate a <select> block in rendered page, and you can use javascript to
access it with the ID name of the control.

But becareful, you might end up overwrite what you do in code behind of this
asp:dropdownlist control.

forgot to mention this, you can only do this in the page (aspx), not in
code-behind...
