Using NULL in parameter

I have a select box where the user typically picks a category to search for (e.g. Addresses). I can grab the selected category and modify the ListDataSource commandText with a parameter (e.g. @Category). The problem I have is I need to be able to find all the records with NULL categories.

Change DataSource

Hi, I have a drop down list whose DataSourceId property needs to change depending on an option chosen from a radiobutton list. Is it possible to change the DataSourceId with jquery and if so, how? I've tried doing alert($('#' + Authorisation.ddCong).attr('DataSourceId')); alert($('#' + Authorisation.ddCong).prop('DataSourceId')); in the radiobutton change function but it just displays 'undefined'

Displaying the datasource textfield in a success template

Answer Accepted

Hi, I have a drop down list in the format textfield = districtName, valueField = districtID. I need to send the id to the submit command, but wanted to display the textfield in a notification email. So they receive an email along the lines of "Thank you for submitting your transfer request to [[districtName]]. blah blah" Is there a token or something that I can use or do I need to use jquery/ajax
