In my webform I am using Jquery and Javascript for popup window and clientside validation.

In the popup window I add the combobox item using javascript. It's all works well.
But When I save the form
The following error occurs

Invalid postback or callback argument.  Event validation is enabled using <pages enableEventValidation="true"/> in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page.  For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them.  If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation.

If I remove the update panel, when I select newly additem in the combobox, the above error is occured

Why? help me....

Hi,
I had this problem a few weeks back also, it turns out that this behaviour is correct, when the page is posted back to the server it is expected to have the same controls present as when it was served up to the client. In your example you have used JQuery to construct a combo box, therefore the event validation fails as it detects the new control.
The easiest way to overcome this is by using server side code to populate the combo box. If you cannot do this you can turn off event validation, or use a method such as ajax instead of posting the form back.

Easy/direct solution can be adding enableEventValidation="false" in your Page directive or Web.config file.

Detailed explanation here: Invalid postback or callback argument solution. Event validation...[^]

Interesting to read one blog entry related to same: “Invalid postback or callback argument” in ASP.NET[^] - It exposes few other reasons on why one can get the same error. Nice read.
