asp.net findcontrol method return null after AsyncPostBackTrigger

Question

I have a big problem that is when I use full post-back I can find controls in my ..._ItemDataBound(...) event in my DataList, but when use AsyncPostBackTrigger I can't find controls and gives me null.

Here's my aspx code:

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
    <asp:DataList ID="DataListGallery" runat="server" RepeatColumns="3" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" OnItemDataBound="DataListGallery_ItemDataBound"   >
       <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:LoginView ID="LoginView1" runat="server">
               <LoggedInTemplate>
                   <asp:HiddenField ID="FieldPhoneId" Value='<%# Eval("Phone_InfoID") %>' runat="server" />                    
                       <img src="../images/cart.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" class="left_bt" /></a>--%>
                           <asp:ImageButton ID="btnShop" OnClick="btnShop_Click" ImageUrl="images/cart.gif" CssClass="left_bt_item" title="header=[خريد] body=[&nbsp;] fade=[on]" runat="server" />                    
                       <img src="../images/favs.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" class="left_bt" /></a>--%>
                           <asp:ImageButton CssClass="left_bt_item" title="header=[مورد علاقه] body=[&nbsp;] fade=[on]" OnClick="btnFavourite_Click" ID="btnFavourite"  ImageUrl="images/unfav.png" runat="server" />                      
                       <img src="../images/favorites.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" class="left_bt" /></a>--%>                    
               </LoggedInTemplate>

<Triggers>
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton1" EventName="Command"></asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger>
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton2" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton3" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton4" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton5" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton6" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton7" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton0" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnSearchHead" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="LinkButton8" EventName="Command" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="lnkNext" EventName="Click" />
                   <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="lnkPrevious" EventName="Click" />                   
               </Triggers>

and Code-Behind:

protected void DataListGallery_ItemDataBound(object sender, DataListItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
    {
        // Get LoginView for access to ImageButton on it.
        var loginView = e.Item.FindControl("LoginView1");

        ImageButton btnFav = (ImageButton)loginView.FindControl("btnFavourite");
        HiddenField hf = (HiddenField)loginView.FindControl("FieldPhoneId");

        List<int> listFav = (List<int>)Session["Fav"];

        if (listFav.Contains(int.Parse(hf.Value)))
            btnFav.ImageUrl = "~/images/favs.gif";
    }
}

When I'm login and use AsyncPostBackTrigger, I can't access to these controls: btnFav and hf. Notice that they are inside LoginView.

Thanks.

I solve my problem from this site: enter link description here

 protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //http://www.aspdotnetfaq.com/Faq/how-to-determine-whether-an-asynchronous-partial-postback-has-occurred-on-page.aspx

    // get a reference to ScriptManager and check if we have a partial postback

    if (ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page).IsInAsyncPostBack)
    {

        // partial (asynchronous) postback occured

        // insert Ajax custom logic here  

    }
    // enable property is re-creating page controls
    else if (!Page.IsPostBack || enable)
    {
        //enable = false;
        if (Page.Request["Page"] != null || Page.Request["Page"] != "")
        {...
