What is Difference between Callbacks and Postback in
ASP.NET?
Answer Posted / alb.shah
Callback : It is a way to send a request to the web page
from the client script. Postback is an expensive call with
processing overhead. In callback a client function sends a
request and a special marked method is invoked on the
server. It does the processing & returns the value which is
received by another client function to process the result.
To have client side callbacks, the page has to implement
ICallbackEventHandler & implement functions
RaiseCallBackEvent & GetCallBackResult.
PostBack: Postback is the event which sends the form data to
the server. The server processes the data & sends it back to
the browser. The page goes through its full life cycle & is
rendered on the browser. It can be triggered by using the
server controls.
Callback is also the form of Postback, but the difference
is in postback execute a complete page life cycle and whole
page redraw, in callback only specific portion (Contorl) is
executed/redraw using client side scriptiong.
