Remarks

Use the Multiple property to specify whether multiple items can be concurrently selected in the HtmlSelect control.

By default, the HtmlSelect control is displayed as a drop-down list box. If you allow multiple selections (by setting the Multiple property to true) or specify a height greater than one row (by setting the Size property to a value greater than 1), the control is displayed as a list box.

To determine the selected items in an HtmlSelect control that allows multiple simultaneous selections, iterate through the Items collection and test the ListItem.Selected property of each item.

Note

The multiple attribute is rendered in the HtmlSelect control only if this property is set to true.
