Itemcommand and Datalist problem

[Kenneth]

Hi there,
The OnItemCommand in my datalist is acting very weirdly,
the first time the page is loaded(or anything on the
datalist is clicked for the first time) its firing only
once, but after that its firing twice. I have no idea why,
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance

Note:
I am using AutoEventWireup="true",but also checking for
Page.Ispostback in my Page_Load.
I am not setting up EnableViewState=True in my datalist.

Thanks
Kenneth

Hi,

The MSDN documentation recommends not setting
AutoEventWireup to true: "If you do set AutoEventWireup to true, Visual
Studio will generate code to bind the events and the page framework will
automatically call events based on their names. This can result in the
same event code being called twice when the page runs. As a consequence,
you should always leave AutoEventWireup set to false when working in
Visual Studio."

tml/vbconWebFormsEventModel.asp )

by the way I try it with simple form (vb,c#) and didn’t get the behavior
you mention.
