Page.IsPostBack always false after urlRewriting

Question

I have a strange problem.

Page.IsPostBack returns always false after url Rewriting.

I am using a link that directs to a function, like,

<a href="#" onclick="return getHelp('4','P')">

This goes to js file and js calls below pagemethod.

<script>
function getHelp(id, type) {
PageMethods.displayHelp(id, type, CallSuccess, CallFailed);
}
</script>

This is the pageMethod that i try to access from javascript,

[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static string displayHelp(string id, string type)
{
 response.writeline(id+type);
}

If i don't use urlrewriting it works perfect. However, if i use urlrewriting, the postback could not recognized.

Any help would be appreciated

It is not apparent to me from your code but if you are simply reloading the page via JavaScript, the postback model will be broken.

Page.ClientScript.GetPostBackEventReference()

to get a client side postback method.
