AsyncPostBackTrigger doesn't 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 don't understand this message. The control has the corresponding click event.

Any idea?

Answer 1

Instead use:

EventName="Click"

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