Very good work!

Can it be ported for Mono.Net?

I cannot see why not! :)

Do you have any knowledge in porting from ASP.NET to Mono.Net?

What are the limitations in Mono.Net?

Hi Troels,

It looks like OutPost is what I need.

All I am missing is a sample on how to fill form fields based on what is entered into other form fields.

An example of what I'm looking for is:

Country: <Select from list>
State: <Select from list>
City: <Select from list>

When country is selected, State is filled based on database content. When State is selected City is automatically filled.

I have tried doing this by PostBack through a hidden frame.

When I select a Country the list of States is updated correctly, but the added options are not available for PostBack so I can fill the list of Cities.

Can you give any pointers as to how I accomplish this?

I have published a new version of OutPost, version 1.3. It includes a Sign-Up web form demo. It's very simple, has one drop-down box with postal code, that updates the postal district. It could easily be extended with two or three dependent drop-downs. Remember: It's just like writing ASP.NET and then turning AJAX on in Page_Load.
