Event validation is enabled using &lt;pages enableEventValidation="true"/&gt; in configuration or &lt;%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %&gt; in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation. </code></pre> <p>I've found a decent amount of articles referencing this issue, including a couple on SO, for example...</p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/228969/asp-net-invalid-postback-or-callback-argument-event-validation-is-enabled-usi">Invalid postback or callback argument.

How do I get this to go away without setting enableEventValidation="false"?</p> <p><b>EDIT</b> Posted all the code for my page.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
