Removing dropdown item from .aspx at pageload
<p>I have the following code that removes the item selected in dropdown1 from dropdown2 when a value in dropdown1 is selected:</p>

<pre><code>protected void DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DropDownList2.Items.Remove(DropDownList1.SelectedItem);

    }
</code></pre>

<p>that works fine.  However I tried adding the same code at pageload but it's not removing the value I'm guessing because nothing has been selected how can I accomplish this?</p>

<pre><code> protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        DropDownList2.Items.Remove(DropDownList1.SelectedItem);
    }
</code></pre>

<p>This is what is not working, any ideas?</p>
