I am reading ASP.NET 3.5 Dummies book. I am on Chapter 4 and learning FormsView. The FormsView new button is not firing InsertItemTemplate. I have no idea where I am wrong in the below code. According to the book it should work without code-behind added
Please help me figure out where I am wrong in the aspx code.
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"

EmptyDataText="There are no data records to display." AllowSorting="True"
