Options added to <select> by javascript lost in postback
<p>I added some options to the select element by javascript in client side and cannot get it in postback.</p>

<p>What should I do?</p>

<p>Code used to add options:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;asp:DropDownList ID="ddlProduct" runat="server"&gt;&lt;/asp:DropDownList&gt;

var ddlProduct = "#"+"&lt;%= ddlProduct.ClientID %&gt;";

$(ddlProduct).append($("&lt;option&gt;&lt;/option&gt;").html(product_name)
</code></pre>
