Totally confused

Ok I have a web control which is used to input search terms. It works
really well on one page.

Now I need nearly the same functionallity on another page and I take the
pieces and move them to the new page (no web control). I have a button with
a click function which populates a repeater. On the first click of the
button it goes to the click handler and all is well. On the second click it
goes directly to the ItemCreated handler. Since the DataSource has not been
created of course this does not work.

Of course in the call stack there is nothing I can identify as to the reason
for the repeater to attempt the ItemCreated since it did not go thru my code
to get a new datasource.

I have tried all sorts of combinations of AutoEventWireup on the @Page
directive but nothing works on the second occurence.

Any ideas? If you want I can post code as well.

Other detail:

Code in button click is:

Dim d As New DAL
Dim artistName As String
artistName = ArtistSearchText.Text

Me.Repeater3.DataSourceID = Nothing
Me.Repeater3.DataSource = d.GetAlbumList(artistName)
Me.Repeater3.DataBind()

ResultsUpdatePanel.Update()


If I comment out the DataBind on all subsequent button clicks it will go to
the click handler. Put the databind in and it no longer goes to the
handler.

Very confusing???

And still more:

I added a page load handler (does nothing). On load of app it is called.
On first click it is called. After that who knows what is happening??

Certainly not me and certainly not ASP.NET.

Ok I have taken out all Ajax (toolkit) code and I now have a button which
when clicked will only work once.

Here is full code:

ASPX:

HELP PLEASE!

This is just a page with a button and a repeater. How can this possibly go
so wrong??

Hi Lloyd,
I'm assuming you found an answer to your problem already and just didn't
bother to post the solution, which I would be very interested in seeing.

My first thought on reading your posts was that the problems were deriving
from the use of an UpdatePanel. I've had some strange things happen with
UpdatePanels when the templates weren't defined such that they each contain
an entire Table (instead of just rows within a table).

Also the Page_Load should Not fire after the inital load of the page,
because the actual page persists in the browser during an asynch callback.

Also I was wondering if you were including the Button (actually an
ImageButton) as a child control in the update panel or at least defining it
as a Trigger for the panel.

But all those ideas went south when you said that you removed the "AJAX"
stuff.

I'm guessing you eventually re-wrote the page from scratch and got it to
finally work.

Cheers...

I did post it. But what was wrong ended up being that I was handling the
ItemCreated rather than the ItemDataBound. I was creating the page by copy
pasting code but creating the events with IDE.

Still a very strange happening when something was wrong.
