Gridview RowCommand does not fire for image button CommandName

Sep 11, 2008 12:29 PM|LINK
I have a gridview - ASP.net 2.0

I have the following code insise my gridview:

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Buy Now">

<ItemTemplate>

<asp:ImageButton ID="imgbtnAddtoCart" runat="server" Text="Add to Cart" CommandName="AddtoCart" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("DocId") %>' CssClass="searchresult_BuyNowButton" />

</ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>

I have a RowCommand event for my gridview:
protected void gvSearchResults_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "AddtoCart")
{
Response.Write("----ok");
}

}

This event does not fire. !!!!!

If I have a Linkbutton server control, it will fire!!!!!!!

They both should work the same. Here is a thread I was involved in where I had the same problem and it turned out to be a viewstate issue.

I did not drink my coffee in time.

In my page load event I was not checking for post backs!!!!
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{

//bind data

}

When I do this then the rowcommand for the gridview hits!!!!!

Thanks..

Its working in my computer:
```
protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "close")
        {
            WebMsgApp.WebMsgBox.Show("Close clicked");
        }
    }
```

My prob is just the other way :( :(

if i check (!Page.IsPostBack) in page load before binding the gird ; ie

if (!Page.IsPostBack)
Bind(); // this () binds the grid

the row command event is not firing. If I comment the if condition Its perfect. What could be the reason. I dont want to bind the grid each and every time page is post backed :(

Pleas any one , any idea
