I'm new to CCS (ie: still in the trial period) so I appologize if this is an easy fix. My ignorance shows...
I have several file management snipits of code (ASP) I'm trying to use, one in particular that builds a dropbox with a list of available images from a folder. Is there a way through CCS to implement that drop-down builder, or should I wait til the site is as close to done with CCS as possible and hardcode it in? I know there are various ways/places you can insert custom code, but so far I've not grasped where/how to include/utilize this code.
Much thanks...
John

Not sure if you want to use the existing ListBox control and populate it with custom values, or do you need a custom ListBox (maybe with multi-selectvalues)?
In any case, probably the best way would be to build custom ListBox by placing a Label on the page, then adding "Before Show" event that would replace the Label with the ListBox. Here is the code template:
'=====================================================================
listbox_string = <PLACE YOUR LISTBOX CREATION LOGIC HERE AND BUILD THE HTML STRING FOR THE LISTBOX>
...
EventCaller.<Label>.Value = listbox_string
'=====================================================================
Replace <Label> with the name of your Label.

Thanks. I'll give it a try in a few days when I get back from a short trip. It's actually a dropbox I'm building... the rountine 'walks' the file directory, building a list of images into the dropbox. The image is either 'selected' (already posted in the db) or the option to upload a new image is given (then 'refresh' the page to repopulate the dropbox so the image can be selected). The code works beautifully on a different site I did. Hoping I can plug it in on CCS instead of having to hardcode in later. Thanks again for the tip.
