populating listbox on the server

[Guest]

I have a listbox which I am populating on the client (it contains a list of
dates selected from calender). The listbox is a server control.
When I get to the server after postback by selecting an item in the list,
the list box cannot be accessed.
How do I repopulate the listbox on the server after postback and be able to
access the elements?

what do you mean it cant be accessed? Is there an error?
Could you show the code you are using.
You should be able to loop through the Items collection on it, as long as
you aren't wiping the values with the postback prior to reading them.

When I say the list box cannot be accessed, I mean that on the server the
listbox shows that there are no items in it.
The items in the list were populated on the client side using javascript and
no server binding was done

Try this sample: http://www.societopia.net/samples/listbox_clientside.aspx

You need to manage the ViewState of the added ListItems.

I am interjecting here . However, it seems that what is happening here
is that the listbox entries are generated by the client. The server has no
idea about them.

Look like a doable hack.
