ASP.NET Timer Event

protected void SubmitButtonClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)

System.Timers.Timer timer = new System.Timers.Timer();

//line 1
get_datasource();
String message = "submitted.";
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this.Page, this.GetType(), "popupAlert", "popupAlert(' " + message + " ');", true);
timer.Interval = 30000;
timer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(timer_tick);
// Only raise the event the first time Interval elapses.
timer.AutoReset = false;
timer.Enabled = true;
}
}
protected void timer_tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//line 2
get_datasource();
GridView2.DataBind();
}
The problem is with the data in the grid view that is being displayed... since when get_datasource which is after line 1 is called the updated data is displayed in the grid view since it is a postback event but when the timer event handler is calling the timer_tick event the get_datasource function is called but after that the updated data is not visible in the grid view. It is nnot getting updated since the timer_tick is not a post back event
