asked on ASP.NET list item not working
I am not a web developer but I have a good understanding of how certain things work but I do not understand this particular problem:
I have a site that has a dropdown list for picking dates. I want to add the dates 2001-2010 onto the code below but cannot seem to get it to function.
I added the entry below to the asp.net file yet it does not appear. I have the source code and tried to rebuild the whole thing and it still does not show up. Can anyone help me?
