Button click & filtering a GridView

[Jokke]

Hi,

* Click event doesn't fire?

On clicking a button, my gridview should be filtered with the value typed in
a textbox.

It works, but only the second time you click the button. First click ->
nothing.

To be on the safe side, I already removed the button and put another one
there (with other name), but the behavior still stands.

I am a first timer in ASP.NET, so I must be missing something. I tried
debugging, and the click event simply doesn't fire the first time you click
the button... Please advise!

the code is:

Protected Sub btnFilterSupplName_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e
As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFilterSupplName.Click
SqlDataSource2.FilterExpression = "[SupplierName] LIKE '%" &
Me.txtSearchSupplName.Text & "%'"
Me.GridView1.DataBind()
End Sub

* Selecting the first GridView record

The GridView has a Select column, and a Details View control is bound to it
If the textbox/button filtering yields results in the GridView, I would like
the DetailsView to display the first record in the GridView, as if the user
had clicked on the Select of the first GridView record.
How can I do this?

thank you for your help!

Can you post the code where you are telling the button about this event
handler? For example, are you setting Click="btnFilterSupplName_Click" in
the HTML markup or are you maybe doing this in a Page Load event, etc...

It is the button click event alright.

btnFilterSCode_Click

Actually happens with 2 buttons, on their respective click events...

Thx for helping.
