Make sure you have declare the hyperlink on page_load. And what the url contains ? is it valid url?

or take the linkButton and implement the click event :

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  LinkButton link = new LinkButton();
  link.Text = "Home";
 
  link.Click += link1_Click;
}
protected void link1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  Response.Redirect("home.aspx");
}

I don't think it has to do anything with the update panel, as you say you want to just navigate to the url. 

I hope you want to just navigate to it in a new blank window: Use the "Target" property to open it in a new window.
<asp:HyperLink ID="myHyperLink"
runat="server" 
NavigateUrl='someurl'
Target="_blank">
</asp:HyperLink>

Hope this helps.

hi,

For avoiding postback due to the clicking of the hyperlink . You must return true after the OnClientClick: 
OnClientClick="this.disabled='true';return true;"

Any clicks in client-side must return true if the postback is to continue, it's a means of providing client-side validatin on button presses.


Hope will helps!!!!!!!!!!

You could do this in the codebehind:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!IsPostBack)
    {
      string pageid = "123";
      MyLink.NavigateUrl = string.Format("../mypage.aspx?id={0}", pageid);
    }
}

UPDATE:

Now that @Marko Ivanovski pointed me in the comments that this hyperlink is inside a GridView which I didn't notice in the beginning the easiest would be to use databinding (<%# syntax):

<asp:TemplateColumn>
    <ItemTemplate>
      <asp:HyperLink
        id="MyLink"
        NavigateUrl='<%# Eval("pageid", "~/mypage.aspx?id={0}")  %>'
        runat="server">
      My Page
      </asp:HyperLink>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>

In this case pageid is a property of the data source.

UPDATE 2:

Do you really need a server side control? How about:

<a href="<%= this.ResolveUrl("~/mypage.aspx?id=" + pageid) %>">
    My Page
</a>
