Solution 1

Define 'onkeyup' event for the textbox. Use txtB.Attributes.Add("onkeyup", "HandleMethodFilter();"); to add the event to textbox.

Now, in Javascript, define this method and use AJAX to get back the data based on the filter text. Show the data retrieved in Grid.
Overall, you would need client side code in order to keep the UI as is, keeping focus on textbox and updating gridview data.

Try!

In code behind page: txtB.Attributes.Add("onkeyup","HandleMethodFilter();");
In ASPX: function HandleMethodFilter();
