Asp Button Click Event Not Firing in aspx view in mvc 4

Question

I have asp button on aspx view in mvc. When I click on button it's not giving any response

<script runat="server">
    private void GetReport(string mode = "")
    {
     ..................
    }
    protected void btnShowReport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //This Event Not Firing.
        GetReport("print");
    }

 </script> 

 <form id="form1" runat="server" >
         //This Button Click is not Working
      <asp:Button ID="btnShowReport" OnClick="btnShowReport_Click" runat="server" Text="Get Last Report"  />

 </form>

This is my aspx view and its page directive is <%@ Page Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<dynamic>" %> @Stephen Muecke — satyender

There is no runat="server" in MVC and no code behind events - this is WebForms code — user3559349

runat="server" comes after adding asp server control in (aspx view) and i have page load event also which is working but having problem in click event.. — satyender

You cannot do this. MVC does not support code behind events (your btnShowReport_Click method) or ViewState. — user3559349

If you are using MVC, avoid these asp.net controls. Use plain HTML controls or use HTML helpers. One of the purposes of using ASP.NET MVC is to have grater control over the code that gets rendered.
