event handling is not working in my asp.net web forms web application

Question

The update button Onclick event is not working.

I inserted one more button called button1 for testing if it works, but found that it is not working, even Icacked in other web forms in the app

It is not working at all.

Only page load event-driven is working.

Update: The problem is not solved with other controls. For example, after the user clicks on an update button, a fucntion will be called that checks the value in the textbox and make some calculation. After debugging, I found that the program cannot read any values from the textbox.

Note: I am using packages like bootstrap, Ajax as they are already built-in in the asp.net web forms web applications. I have also tried to exclude them from the project as mentioned in some references, however, nothing changed.

Here is my code for Shopping Cart web form:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

using Celebreno.Models;
using Celebreno.Cart;

//to use IOrderedDictionary
using System.Collections.Specialized;

using System.Collections;
using System.Web.ModelBinding;



namespace Celebreno
{
    public partial class ShowCart : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //2- Display the total of cart by calling GetTotal() function(located in Actions_of_Cart class)
            //and then store the return value in a new variable, then dispaly it in a label
            using (Actions_of_Cart usersShoppingCart = new Actions_of_Cart())
            {

            //declare a new variable to store the total into it
            decimal cartTotal = 0;
            cartTotal = usersShoppingCart.GetTotal();

            if (cartTotal > 0)
            {
                    //Display Total in a label that has property " Enable ViewState = False"
                    //      ViewSate used
                    LblTotal.Text = String.Format("{0:c}", cartTotal);
            }
            else

Answer 1

solved: by adding two attributes as shown below

<asp:Button ID="UpdateBtn" runat="server" OnClick="UpdateBtn_Click" Text="Button" CausesValidation="False" UseSubmitBehavior="false" />
