C#
List<Country_tbl> listOfCountry = MyDataBase.Country.Liste.Complete;//get list of Country from database

controls.DropDownList.Bind(listOfCountry, ddlCountry );//binding list to ddl
if (Request.Cookies["SelectedCountry"] != null)
{
      string Countryid=Request.Cookies["SelectedCountry"].Value;
      controls.DropDownList.SelectItem(ddlCountry, Countryid);//select item from ddl that have Value==countryid
      List<State_tbl> listOfState = MyDataBase.State.list(Countryid);//BreakPoint: here i check ddlCountry it have One Selected Value
      controls.DropDownList.Bind(listOfState , ddlState);
      //if (Request.Cookies["SelectedState"] != null)
      //{
      //    string Stateid=Request.Cookies["SelectedState"].Value;
      //    controls.DropDownList.SelectItem(ddlState, Stateid);
      //    List<City_tbl> listOfCity = MyDataBase.City.list(Cityid);
      //    controls.DropDownList.Bind(listOfCity , ddlCity);

Show your code with event name. and your question is not clear at all .when you are using ddl.ClearSelection() its reset all the selected value .So you need to track item selected each time and store them in a container like listbox .Or you may use dropdownlist with checkboxlist for mutiple selection try the link below

I see that you are using selectItem method in first code snippet, and, Select method in 2nd code snippet. Are you calling wrong method to select a value?
