ASP.NET events symbol (yellow lightning bolt) missing

Question

I created a new C# ASP.NET Web Application project in .NET 3.5 Then I dragged a button in my form.

In the property window the events symbol (yellow lightning bolt) does not show. When I double click the box next to 'OnClientClick' in the properties Window no default event handler is created. When I double click the button in design view no event handler is created either.

Any ideas on how I can get the events symbol and the automatic generation of a default event handler?

Perhaps you didn't have the option checked for "Place code in a separate file" when adding the webform? Also "OnClientClick" isn't a server side event, it is just a string property so it wouldn't ever map to a server side event handler.
