===============================

protectedvoid btnSave_Click(object sender,EventArgs e){

string Errors = validation();
if (Errors.Length > 0)
{
lblMessage.Text = Errors;
lblMessage.Visible =true;
return;}DateTime SpeakerDate =DateTime.Today;
DateTime.TryParse(txtDate.Text.Trim(),out SpeakerDate);
string SpeakerName = txtSpeakerName.Text.Trim();
string Topic = txtTopic.Text.Trim();
string Comments = txtComments.Text.Trim();
string Action = ((Utilities.ProcessStatus)this.ProcessMode).ToString();
int Success =Speaker.SpeakerAddEditDelete(CookiesInfo.ClubId,this.SpeakerId, SpeakerDate,
SpeakerName, Topic, Comments, Action);
if (Success == -1)
{
lblMessage.Text =" - Record has not been saved. Please check the inputs.";
lblMessage.Visible =true;
}else{
ResetControls();
lblMessage.Text =" - Record has been saved successfully.";
lblMessage.Visible =true;
}
}privatevoid ResetControls(){

txtDate.Text =String.Format("{0:MMMM d, yyyy}",DateTime.Today);
txtSpeakerName.Text =string.Empty;
txtComments.Text =string.Empty;
txtTopic.Text =string.Empty;

}

The textboxes are not part of the UpdatePanel's ContentTemplate.

hence , inaccessible from the server.

Move them inside the UpdatePanel and they will be accessible .

Hope this helps
