Hi Vijay,

Please try and do some coding yourself before asking for help!

What are you trying to fill the drop down with?

Have you actually looked at the examples I suggested you looked at in your previous post? http://our.umbraco.org/forum/developers/extending-umbraco/6167-how-to-use-xslt-in-umbraco

I assume you know how to write HTML? If not.. you will really need to go back to basics and learn HTML or you will really struggle!

Have a look at their for-each example which should help you create your drop down list, if you are still stuck, please post the code you have written into this forum thread and I am sure someone ( maybe me if I am still around ) will try and help you :)

Good luck!

Cheers,

Chris

hi chris,

my doubt is if we use user control we can read node name and id using API and assign to dropdown data text field and data value field properties

but how to asign these values to dropdown when we are filling dropdown using xslt.

Vijay... you are making me bang my head on the wall ;-)

Here is a very simple example of creating a drop down list using XSLT. If you want to use .NET controls you need to create a user control.
```
<select name="demo">
 <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node">
  <option>
   <xsl:attribute name="value">
     <xsl:value-of select="./@id"/>
   </xsl:attribute>
   <xsl:value-of select="./@nodeName"/>
  </option>
 </xsl:for-each>
</select>
```
Cheers,

Chris
