ASP.Net Newbie question

Hi

I have been working through some basic samples and there is a problem with a
call to a button click

I am using Visual Studio 2008 and have placed a text box, a label and button
on a page - sample code here

<script language="C#" runat="server">
private void Button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
lblSample.Text = txtSample.Text;
}
</script>

<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
<P> <asp:Label id="lblSample" runat="server"
Width="208px">Label</asp:Label></P>
<P> <asp:Label id="Label1" runat="server" Width="104px">Enter Text
Here:</asp:Label>
<asp:TextBox id="txtSample" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></P>
<P> <asp:Button id="Button1" runat="server" Text="Submit"></asp:Button> </P>
</form>

this submits the form but does not update the label.Text.

setting a break point in the button click never gets called

If however I transfer the code to the Page Load event it does get called.

Given that this is asample of a similar type in both a book and from a
seperate online tutorial it seems that I am doing something basically wrong.

TIA

You should ask in the ASP .NET group.

you mite have not added the function to the click event.

try adding the following line to your form_load

Button1.Click+=new EventHandler( Button1_Click);

Double click on the button and see cursor, weather it goes to the
"Button1_Click" Handler method or it creates a new handler named
"Button1_Click_1"; if it creates a new handler then place code in the new
handler or simply remove the previous handler and then double click on the
button and paste code there.
