facebox in asp.net cannot postback

Question

i have an aspx page with feedback form which rendered inside facebox. In the form, i have a button which used to submit the form. After this, the facebox closes and its opening the page which is loading in the facebox in another page. I did go through many q&a here and tried on many suggested answers such as the link attached as below but unfortunately I still cannot figure it out.

Answer 1

If you are having issues with posting back, the easiest way to force the postback is to trigger the __doPostBack method as in:

__doPostBack('uniqueid', 'args');

Regardless of the issue with the button click, this should do the job.

Answer 2

You might want to try sticking your app in an UpdatePanel so that when you postback in your section it's not posting back the entire site to FaceBook. I'm not sure how your site is embedded into facebook, but if possible you might also try using iFrames to do the same thing (so that you're only posting back your frame, and not the entire facebook page). My guess is that the postback to facebook results in your page being overwritten (by facebook).
