Hi, this is no direct answer to your question - so sorry in advance - but maybe you can solve your issue the other way arround. Target your popup extender to a simple label like: And then, when your itemcommand fires, open the popup from codebehind using [extenderName].Show();. Im doing that in a gridview and it works perfectly. Good Luck

Don't set the target to the link button. Set it to some other button outside the repeater that isn't visible. Then in the item command call .show on the popup control. If you don't want a full postback you need to wrap it all in an updatePanel.
