Session Variable not persisting when button pressed in aspx

Question

ASPX:

<asp:Button class="testBtn" id="testBtn" Text="Test Variable" runat="server" OnClick="test_Click"/>

C#:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Session Variables START
        Session["Name"] = null;
        //Session Variables END

        if (!IsPostBack)
        {   
         Session["Name"] = "tester";
        }
        else
        {
        //
        }
    }

     protected void test_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string test1 = (string)Session["Name"];
        
Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "alert", "alert('" + test1 + "');", true);
    }

Any help would be greatly appreciated. For whatever reason I cannot get the variable to stick.

Figured out that if I use Session variables I do not need to worry about !IsPostBack and containing them in there was the problem.

Resolution: Take it out of the !IsPostBack statement
