Hi,
I have a very simple Workflow Association page which works fine except that
the IsPostBack value is always true even the first time the page is hit?
For testing I stripped almost all the code - see below - and the problem
still occurs.
Is this a known bug? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick

public class AssociationForm : LayoutsPageBase
{
protected HtmlInputText helloWorld = new HtmlInputText();
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!this.Page.IsPostBack)
{
}
}

protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}

protected void btnCancel_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
}

Problem still occurs if I inherit directly from the System.Web.UI.Page class

Hello bizint,

How you sure that when you first load the page, it postback?

Did you debug the process to confirm it?

Yes, I've debugged the page and the first time the page is hit the
IsPostBack value is true instead of false.
I've asked a collegue to replicate the problem and she experienced the same
problem.
Is this a bug?

Hello,

I did not found any related known issue in our internal database.

Could you please let me know the detailed steps or the whole code snip so
that I may try to reproduce this on my side?

Hi Wei Lu,
Thank you for responding.
You don't need any code, just create a basic sharepoint workflow with a
workflow association page (if you want it can be completely empty except for
an onLoad event, see the code in my original post), deploy the workflow and
test the IsPostBack property.
These are the steps I took:
1. Create basic sharepoint workflow in visual studio.
2. Add association page (I've only tried with asp.net not infopath)
3. Deploy workflow
4. Attach workflow to sharepoint list (at this point debug the onLoad
Event and test IsPostBack property)

Thanks,
Nick
