title: ASP.NET MasterPage Postback not working from homepage
body: <p>I have this textbox and submit button in a <code>MasterPage</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;telerik:RadTextBox ID="txtsearch" runat="server" EnableViewState="false" Height="23px" Width="150px"&gt;&lt;/telerik:RadTextBox&gt;
  &lt;asp:RadioButtonList ID="searchType" runat="server" EnableViewState="False" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" RepeatLayout="Table" Width="160px"&gt;
    &lt;asp:ListItem Selected="True" Value="1"&gt;Authors&lt;/asp:ListItem&gt;
    &lt;asp:ListItem Value="2"&gt;Quotes&lt;/asp:ListItem&gt;
  &lt;/asp:RadioButtonList&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And here is the code in <code>MasterPage</code> which executes when a user clicks the search button</p>
  
  <pre><code>protected void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
      if (searchType.SelectedValue == "1")
      {
          Response.Redirect("~/quotes/authors/search/" + HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(txtsearch.Text)+"/1");
      } 
      else 
      {
          Response.Redirect("~/quotes/search/"+ HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(txtsearch.Text)+"/1");
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It works from any page, except from the home page. If you access the homepage with /Default.aspx it works.</p>
