I've a asp:button which is set to visible="false" in .aspx.this is on a search page.in code behind if search returns >0 records the button is set to visible=true.
funny thing thats happenin here is first time when the search returns some records & the button is visible, but on next search when records returned is zero, the button is still visible, unless i do an explicit visible=false in code behind.is the button not supposed to take the default proprety that is set in .aspx on postback?

The button stores the Visible property in ViewState, so it survives postbacks.

You either need to set it explicitly, or set EnableViewState on the button to false.
