AsyncPostBackTrigger does not find LinkButton

Question

I have this code in my .aspx file

<asp:UpdatePanel runat="server" ID="UpdatePanel1" UpdateMode="Conditional"> <ContentTemplate> <asp:PlaceHolder runat="server" ID="Placeholder1" EnableViewState="false"></asp:PlaceHolder> </ContentTemplate> <Triggers> <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="ShowVotePanelBtn" EventName="ShowVoteClick" /> </Triggers> </asp:UpdatePanel> 

And I get this error: Could not find an event named 'ShowVoteClick' on associated control 'ShowVotePanelBtn' for the trigger in UpdatePanel 'UpdatePanel1' .

I do not understand this message. The control has a corresponding click event.

Any idea?

Answer 1

Use instead:

 EventName="Click" 

This will raise your Click event of your LinkButton control, as defined by its OnClick property. In your case, your ShowVoteClick event.
