CheckBox CheckedChanged event without AutoPostBack = True

Question

I added checkbox control to the GridView column dynamically. On each GridView_RowBound() event, checkbox is being added to the column. Also defined, CheckBox_CheckedChanged event in the RowBound() event as below,

Protected Sub GridviewChildItem_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs)

    If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow AndAlso Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(CRMSignCond) Then
        Dim lbValue As Label = DirectCast(e.Row.Cells(5).FindControl("lbValue"), Label)
        e.Row.Cells(5).Attributes.Add("onmousemove", "Show('" + lbValue.Text + "')")
        e.Row.Cells(5).Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor=this.oldcolor;Hide();")
    End If

    AddTemplateControls(Nothing, e)


End Sub
Private Sub AddTemplateControls(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs)
    Dim cbTargetSign As New CheckBox
    Dim rbConsolidate As New RadioButtonList
    Dim tbSignGrp As New TextBox

    cbTargetSign.ID = "chkSelect"
    cbTargetSign.AutoPostBack = False
    cbTargetSign.Checked = True
    rbConsolidate.ID = "rbConsolidate"
    tbSignGrp.ID = "tbSigningGroup"
    tbSignGrp.Width = 25
    If Not e.Row.RowIndex = -1 Then
        e.Row.Cells(6).Controls.Add(cbTargetSign)
        e.Row.Cells(4).Controls.Add(tbSignGrp)
        e.Row.Cells(7).Controls.Add(rbConsolidate)
    End If
    rbConsolidate.RepeatDirection = RepeatDirection.Horizontal
    rbConsolidate.Items.Add("Yes")
    rbConsolidate.Items.Add("No")
    rbConsolidate.Items(1).Selected = CBool(True)
    If cbTargetSign.Checked Then
        rbConsolidate.Enabled = False
    End If
    **AddHandler cbTargetSign.CheckedChanged, AddressOf cbTargetSign_CheckedChanged**
End Sub

'Checkbox- CheckedChanged event.

Public Sub cbTargetSign_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

End Sub

Every time, when i check the checkbox in the grid, checkedChanged event doesn't trigger. Anyone guide me how to resolve this ?

Note: I don't want to set AutoPostBack of checkbox to TRUE since it reloads the entire grid with default values.

If you don't want to set AutoPostBack of checkbox to TRUE since it reloads the entire grid with default values, you will try set AutoPostBack="True" and:

`<`asp:UpdatePanel ID="itemPanel" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional"`>`<br/>
                `<`ContentTemplate`>`<br/>
                   //your controls<br/>
               `<`/ContentTemplate`>`<br/>
`<`/asp:UpdatePanel`>`
