page load event is not firing

Question

i have the following code: In the Load event I write: void page_load() { this.cboLanguage.items.add(Pakistan); } on the click event of button: void btnSubmit_click() { Label1.text=cboLanguage.selectedText; } My problem is neither load event nor click event of form is firing. Any Help would be appreciated. Thanx.

the problem is that you should specify the following code in Page_load event if(!IsPostBack) { this.cboLanguage.items.add(Pakistan); } this means that on first load the combo will add the value and when the user clicks btn submit the page is in postback and the label will get the value you want

You must somehow inform the runtime to run those events. There are two ways. 1) Using Page derictive autoeventwireup=true or 2) overriding Page's constructor and writing this.Load += new EventHandler(Page_Load)

Dear it_farooq i think what is missing is the arguments in the event your code have missing argument i mean you should have arguments in your code for example ---------------------- private void Page_Load(object sender System.EventArgs e) instead of private void Page_Load() ----------------------- and ---------------------- private void btnSubmit_Click(object sender System.EventArgs e) instead of void btnSubmit_click() ----------------------- i hope this works
