I have used update panel and in that update panel I have kept ASP Table control in which I am creating rows dynamically which in turn contains 1 dropdown lists and 3 text boxes. My problem is that after partial postback text boxes and dropdown list are found but text property of text boxes is showing empty and dropdown list’s selected value is set to the first record in that box. I have also stored entire table in session and retrieve it in(!isPostBack) condition at page_load event. Please guide me how to resolve this problem?
part of my .aspx page is as below
<td colspan="2">
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
</asp:ScriptManager>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server" EnableViewState="true">
<ContentTemplate>
<table class="style1">
<tr>
<td>
<table class="style1" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="120">
<asp:Label ID="QualificationLbl" runat="server" Text="Qualification"></asp:Label> </td>
<td width="100">
<asp:Label ID="PercentageLbl" runat="server" Text="Percentage"></asp:Label>
</td>
<td width="100">
<asp:Label ID="YearLbl" runat="server" Text="Passing Year"></asp:Label>
</td>
<td width="*">
<asp:Label ID="InstituteLbl" runat="server" Text="Institute Name" Width="120px"
onprerender="InstituteLbl_PreRender"></asp:Label>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="4" align="left">
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder" runat="server"></asp:PlaceHolder>
<asp:Table ID="Table1" runat="server">
</asp:Table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right">
<asp:Button ID="addRowBtn" runat="server" onclick="addRowBtn_Click"
Text="Add New Row" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="addRowBtn" EventName="Click" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

I want to add one row on every addRowTbn click event there by retaining previous rows.
From my first look through, you are trying to pull drop down’s selected value and the text box’s text value from the table you stored in session, but you stored that table in session prior to the user having the opportunity to make changes to the values.
