What is IsPostback property in asp.net and how does it work?

PostBack is the name given to the process of submitting an ASP.NET page to the server for processing. PostBack is done if certain credentials of the page are to be checked against some sources (such as verification of username and password using database). This is something that a client machine is not able to accomplish and thus these details have to be 'posted back' to the server.

A post back is round trip from the client (Browser) to the server and then back to the client. This enables you page to go through the asp engine on the server and any dynamic content to be updated.
