Dude... I also came through certain situation.
But the only change in my case is, it was checklistbox.

If I am not wrong, you must facing problem like,

On selection of list value you need the current selectedvalue,
but you must be getting the first selected value on every selection change...

If this is your problem, I have made a solution for checklistbox on my blog
[http://nadarmuthukumar.blogspot.in/2012/03/get-selected-value-in-checkboxlist_02.html[^]]
You can refer the same, only by changing my checklistbox to listbox

The ASP.NET class System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListBox does not support multiple selection in the same way as in WPF or System.Windows.Forms.

Please see:

For multi-select mode, please see:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.listbox.selectionmode.aspx[^].

Locate the section "Examples" and look for the first example. It shows how to work with multiple selection
