Update a checkbox inside a gridview edit itemtemplate

My itemTemplate displays a picture of a check or a cross depending on the bool value. But when I try to update the edit template using a checkbox, the new value isn't accepted. Clicking on update refreshed the page and nothing happens. If I remove this field, the gridview and database do get updated. There's no code behind the gridview, it's all in markup. Any suggestions?

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Transferred"
                SortExpression="ownershipTransferred" >
                  <EditItemTemplate>
                      <asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server"/>
                  </EditItemTemplate>
                <ItemTemplate>
                            <asp:Image ID="Image3" runat="server" ImageUrl='<%# (Eval("ownershipTransferred").Equals(true) ? "~/images/wcheck.png" : "~/images/wcross.png")%>' Height="18" />

                           </ItemTemplate>

What do you mean isn't accepted? – Dean.DePue Jun 18 '14 at 15:43
I can press update and it works, but it doesn't update the database. – user3647943 Jun 18 '14 at 15:46
So you have no code behind and you expect the database to get updated? Are you expecting magic? – Dean.DePue Jun 18 '14 at 15:49
It's marked up using the wizard and connecting to the database.. if I delete this specific field the database gets updated. – user3647943 Jun 18 '14 at 16:00
Set AutoPostBack="True" on the checkbox and see if it works. – Consult Yarla Jun 18 '14 at 16:26
