ASP.NET Button Not Calling Event

Question

I've created an ASP.NET button like so:

<asp:Button ID="btnSaveCoords" runat="server" OnClick="btnSaveCoords_Click" Text="Save Changes" CssClass="btn btn-warning" />

and the event in the OnClick is defined as follows:

protected void btnSaveCoords_Click(object sender, EventArgs 
{
    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Saving Coordinates...");
}

When I click the button, btnSaveCoords_Click isn't fired. What am I doing wrong?

OnClick="btnSaveCoords_Click" should be OnClick="btnSaveCrop_Click" — jtimperley

The firs row in the .aspx markup file should be like this:

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" 
CodeBehind="WebForm1.aspx.cs" Inherits="SportStore.Views.WebForm1" %>
