Placing DataBound Drop Down List into TableCell - asp.net

Question

I have a bound drop down list that I would like to place into a Table Cell. I am used to Labels and Text Boxes but I cannot seem to get the syntax working on this one. This code is inside of a Webmethod and my output has to be just the html. Thank you.
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static string gatherSurchargeData(string PriceListItemID, string ProdID, string ColorCode)
{
DataTable GetProductSizes = new DataTable();
GetProductSizes = DataLayer.PricingToolDL.getProductSizes(ProdID, ColorCode);
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt = DataLayer.PricingToolDL.getScharge(PriceListItemID);
Table tblScharges = new Table();
tblScharges.ID = "tblScharges";
TableHeaderRow th = new TableHeaderRow();
TableHeaderCell thSizeScharge = new TableHeaderCell();
thSizeScharge.Text = "Size";
th.Cells.Add(thSizeScharge);
tblScharges.Rows.Add(th);
int i = 0;
while (i <= dt.Rows.Count - 1)
{
TableRow tr = new TableRow();
tr.ID = "tableTr" + i;
TableCell tcSizeScharge = new TableCell();
DropDownList ddl = new DropDownList();
ddl.DataSource = GetProductSizes;
ddl.DataTextField = "FitSize";
ddl.DataValueField = "FitSize";
ddl.DataBind();
//string dtMovexSKU = dt.Rows[i]["MovexSKU"].ToString();
//DataRow[] GetProductSizesMovexSKU = GetProductSizes.Select("MovexSKU Like'" + dtMovexSKU + "'");
//tcSizeScharge.ID = "tcSizeScharge" + i;
//tcSizeScharge.Text = GetProductSizesMovexSKU[0][1].ToString();
tr.Cells.Add(tcSizeScharge);
tblScharges.Rows.Add(tr);
i++;
}
string html = "";
using (StringWriter sw = new StringWriter())
{
tblScharges.RenderControl(new HtmlTextWriter(sw));
html = sw.ToString();
}
return html;
}
The commented lines would be the code I would use if I were only wanting text to appear if that helps.

You need to add control in tablecell like this
tcSizeScharge.Controls.Add(ddl);
