AutoPostback not seeming to go to Page_load

I am running a program I got off the net and found the author was doing an
"autopostback=true" on his textbox.

I am not sure why he was doing this as it doesn't seem to be doing anything,
but when I put trace on, I can see the page being posted, but I have the
following:

*************************************************************
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Trace.Warn("inside Page_Load");
if(!IsPostBack)
***************************************************************
The Trace.Warn displays on all of the other Postbacks, but doesn't seem to
on the AutoPostBack.

Is it foregoing the Page_Load for some reason?

I was going to take it out as it doesn't seem to be doing anything, but I am
curious as to what it is doing.

Thanks,

Tom.
 
Hmm. a postback can not skip the Load event. May be you are overlooking. How
about putting a breakpoint in the Page_Load handler and see if it does stop
there or not.

I thought that was what I was doing with the trace.warn statement.

Placing a breakpoint and executing a programin debug mode will give you the
ability to step into the program. Trace.warn is a just a diagnostic message
tool, but its not equal to a breakpoint. Anyway, as i said its just another
diagnostic tool. If you care, try placing the breakpoint and step into the
code, rather than just relying on an output statement. I am sure you are
missing something

Good Luck
