Is hitting Page_Load twice your issue?

Most probably its due to asp:Image or img without src defined.

To quote mbanavige of ASP.NET Forums,

if you have an img tag with an empty/missing src attribute, then the browser may re-request the current page (or may request the default page) why trying to satisfy the empty src for that img tag.

Another possibility that occurs from time to time is that the page_load event has been wired up twice.

This is by design. In the page life-cycle it is called on the initial request and on the postback.

ASP.NET webforms are self-posting, so Page_Load will hit hit everytime a time a post back occurs. If you would like to only execute certain code on initial page load, add the following to your Load event handler:

if (!Page.IsPostback)
{
 // Code here
}

This says only execute this code if this is the first request to this page.

But second time also its saying Ispostback is true. – Sandy Aug 17 '11 at 15:12
The second time IsPostBack *will* be true. – Ta01 Aug 17 '11 at 15:15
