what is <a id="btnSave" runat="server" class="button">submit? If it is a button, correct its tag formation and see my solution. If it is a link, I dont think you can fire an event from server side. On clicking it, it will navigate to the specified url.

@ Zafar Sultan... I think its a AsyncPostBackTrigger as mentioned over there in question...:)

No sir. I am talking about the tag(<a id="btnSave" runat="server" class="button">submit). It is formed like an anchor tag but the OP wants it to behave like a button :)

Replace

ASP.NET

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="MyUpdatePanel" UpdateMode="Conditional" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<a id="btnSave"  runat="server" class="button">submit
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnSave" EventName="ServerClick" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

with

ASP.NET

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="MyUpdatePanel" UpdateMode="Conditional" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Button id="btnSave" runat="server" onclick="btnSave_Click" Text="Submit"/>
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnSave" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

Now write in your code behind

C#

public void btnSave_Click(object sender,EventArgs e)
{

}

I have replace anchor tag with button. Because anchor tag does not fire event on server side. You have to use button. In fact you don't even have to use trigger if you have a button inside update panel.
