I am trying to use javascript to pop a window based on an item selection in a custom dropdown.

 

protected void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
 // Put user code to initialize the page here
 Ajax.Utility.RegisterTypeForAjax(typeof(EditContent));

        
        Editor.AutoConfigure = CuteEditor.AutoConfigure.Default;
        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
              CuteEditor.ToolControl toolctrl = Editor.ToolControls["CustomItems"];
              if (toolctrl != null)
              {
                   CuteEditor.RichDropDownList dropdown = (CuteEditor.RichDropDownList)toolctrl.Control;
   
                   //Add the onchange attribute to the dropdown to call my custom function
                   dropdown.Attributes["onchange"] = "DropDownChange(this)";

                   //the first item is the caption       
                   CuteEditor.RichListItem richitem = dropdown.Items[0];

                   //clear the items from configuration files       
                   dropdown.Items.Clear();

                   //Add the items and values to the list
                   dropdown.Items.Add(richitem);
   
                   //Add the new items to the drop down
                   dropdown.Items.Add("Insert Footer Info","Insert Footer Info");
                   dropdown.Items.Add("Insert Header Info", "Insert Header Info");
              }
        }
}

 

function DropDownChange(element)
{
 //check element for desired values
 alert(element);
 alert(element.value);
 alert(element.toString());
 alert(element.name);
}

 

Of course I don't want to just alert the values, but at that point I should be able to see the values that were past over, but I dont.  All of the alert box's say eith '0' or "undefined'.  Is there abetter way to do this?

 

Thanks
