Button in repeater does not work ItemCommand

Question

Why does the button inside the repeater not trigger the Repeater ItemCommand event? Is there any way to get this to do this? ViewState is included.

In the code below, btnApprove and btnDelete are the buttons in question:

<asp:Repeater runat="server" ID="rpt1" onitemdatabound="rpt1_ItemDataBound" onitemcommand="rpt1_ItemCommand" >
    <ItemTemplate>
        <table width="100%" style="margin-bottom:6px;">
            <tr>
                <td>
                    <asp:CheckBox ID="chkSelected" runat="server" Text=" " TextAlign="Right"/> Select
                    <asp:Button ID="btnApprove" runat="server" Width="80px" Text="Approve" />
                    <asp:Button ID="btnDelete" runat="server" Width="80px" Text="Delete" />
                </td>                                                                   
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td align="right">
                    <asp:Label ID="lblCommentStatus" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
        <table width="100%" style="margin-top:6px;">
            <tr>
                <td><asp:Label ID="lblAuthorName" runat="server" Text="Author: " Width="60px"></asp:Label></td>
                <td><asp:TextBox ID="txtAuthorName" runat="server" Width="250px"></asp:TextBox></td>
                <td style="padding-left: 30px;"><asp:Label ID="lblAuthorLocation" runat="server" Text="Location: " Width="70px"></asp:Label></td>
                <td><asp:TextBox ID="txtAuthorLocation" runat="server" Width="250px"></asp:TextBox></td>
            </tr>
        </table>
        Title: <asp:TextBox ID="txtTitle" runat="server" Width="640px" Enabled="False"></asp:TextBox>
        Body: <asp:TextBox ID="txtBody" runat="server" Width="640px" TextMode="MultiLine" Height="60px" Enabled="False"></asp:TextBox>
        <table width="100%" style="margin-top:6px;">
            <tr>
                <td><asp:Label ID="lblVotes" runat="server" Text="Votes: " Width="80px"></asp:Label></td>
                <td><asp:Label ID="lblVotesCount" runat="server" Text="" Width="600px"></asp:Label></td>
            </tr>
        </table>
        <hr style="margin-top:20px; margin-bottom:20px;" />
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

  protected void rpt1_ItemCommand(object source, RepeaterCommandEventArgs e)
  {
    var c1 = CommentRepository.GetById(Convert.ToUInt64(e.CommandArgument.ToString()));

    if (e.CommandName == "approve")
    {
      c1.Approved = true;
      c1.ApprovationUserId = WebAdminContext.RelatedUserId;
    }

    if (e.CommandName == "reject")
    {
      c1.Approved = false;
      c1.ApprovationUserId = 0;
    }

    if (e.CommandName == "delete")
    {
      c1.Deleted = true;
      c1.DeletionUserId = WebAdminContext.RelatedUserId;
    }

    if (e.CommandName == "restore")
    {
      c1.Deleted = false;
      c1.DeletionUserId = 0;
    }

    CommentRepository.Update(c1);

    ResetSubSequenceInfo();
    BindList();
      }

/// <summary>
  /// Binds the list.
  /// </summary>
  private void BindList()
  {
    _Criteria = lcb1.GenerateCriteriaFromUI();

    var sc1 = CommentRepository.Filter(
      new FilteringOptions(
        EntityListPager1.CurrentSubSequenceInfo,
        null,
        CommentRepository.GetCriteriaToFilterByTGID(CurrentEntityGEODEReference.GID).And(_Criteria)
        )
      );

    // BIND
    rpt1.DataSource = sc1.Items;
    rpt1.DataBind();

    EntityListPager1.BindToUI(sc1.Info);
  }

Edit : to your other comments, it looks like you are re-linking the repeater with every postback. When you do this, you destroy the event ItemCommandsource — the original relay element associated with the button pressed by the client.

"" "" , (postback) BindList() .

<asp:Button ID="btnApprove" runat="server" Width="80px" Text="Approve" CommandName="approve"/>
<asp:Button ID="btnDelete" runat="server" Width="80px" Text="Delete" CommandName="delete"/>

How the other 2 posts describe

• Do not reinstall PostBack
• Make sure you set the CommandName property on the button

And another problem that I encountered was that the EnableViewState property for the Repeater parameter was false, it should be set to true.
