Selected index is not persisted after canceling OnClientSelectedIndexChanging event
I have a few instances where I need OnClientSelectedIndexChanging inorder to stop the listbox selectedIndexChanged event from posting back in certain cases. In those cases I stop it from posting back by setting the e.set_cancel(true);

function CheckForListBoxReorder_OnClientEvent(sender, e) {
    if (ListboxReordered()) {
        alert('Please save changes to the bus order.');
        e.set_cancel(true);
    }
}

This works very nicely, but I'm getting many errors because although it looks like it's still selected to the proper row in the listbox the selectedIndex is now -1.

Hello Devora,

Thank you for reporting this issue, as a temporary workaround, the following approach can be used: 

<script>
    function OnClientSelectedIndexChanging(sender, args) {
        var chkb = $find("<%= RadCheckBox1.ClientID %>");
  
        if (chkb.get_checked()) {
            args.set_cancel(true);
            var selectedItem = sender.get_selectedItem();
            if (selectedItem) {
                sender._registerSelectedIndex(selectedItem.get_index());
            }
        }
    }
</script>
