Remarks

The LoadPostData method is used primarily by control developers, when deriving a custom control from the ListBox class.

The LoadPostData method indicates if the state of the ListBox control has changed. In other words, it determines if each list item in the control has the same Selected value as the last posted value. A user selecting an item in the control changes the Selected value for the corresponding ListItem object in the Items collection of the ListBox control. If some list items are selected in the control, or if the ListBox is disabled, LoadPostData returns false.

When the LoadPostData method returns true for a control, the ASP.NET page framework invokes the RaisePostDataChangedEvent method for the control.
