I have a checkbox inside a grid view.When i click on save button,i check at code behind which check boxes are checked to save record in db.butCheck box.checked property is always false.

foreach (GridViewRow row in GridView1.Rows)
{
CheckBox chbx = (CheckBox)row.FindControl("chk1");
if (chbx.Checked)
{
}}
However it works fine in Mozilla but not in IE

You sure you put the GridView bind code in page IsPostback property?

If you do not, then on every postback, page load would happen and grid would refresh rebind - loosing all the changes.

C#

if(!IsPostback)
{
 //...
 //...
 // GridView DataBind
 //...
}

Did you DEBUG and see the execution? use F11. AFAIK, there is no known issue with checkbox in grid with IE.

yes i debugged it..there is no issue with checkbox..i came with another scenario.i was using html button and in page load with the hidden variable i was calling a save method which was checking checkbox's check or not..if i use server side button,then on click is not fired in IE,where as in other browsers it is working.
