How To Increase a View State Value on page load

Question

Hi Friends  I want to increment a variable by 1 inside the page load that means whenever i reload the page the value of the variable should increase by one. i have wrote the following lines of code but alaways getting the result as 1. i am not understanding how to increment the value.... protected void Page_Load(object sender EventArgs e) { if(!Page.IsPostBack) { ViewState[View] = 1; int count = (int)ViewState[View]; count += 1; ViewState[View] = count; lblView.Text = ViewState[View].ToString(); } }

Hi Sthitaprajnya If you are reloading the page that means every time it will come as a new request (First time). And in your below logic every time you are again assigning ViewState[View]=1 so it will always equal to 1. ViewState[View] = 1; int count = (int)ViewState[View]; But In case of any button click (Post back request) then you can increase your count value as below protected void Page_Load(object sender EventArgs e) { if(!Page.IsPostBack) { ViewState[View]=1; } else { int count = (int)ViewState[View]; count += 1; ViewState[View] = count; lblView.Text = ViewState[View].ToString(); } } --------------------------------------------------- If this post helps you mark it as answer
