UpdatePanel suppose to reload the whole page

[mbde]

Right now I have a master page. In the master I have a script manager, a Update Panel, a Label and a timer.

Right now I am just putting the time in the label, if I get this to work I will want to do something more advance of getting a status from a database. But the concept is the same

I have tried putting the timer in the UpdatePanel with ChildernAsTriggers and outside the UpdatePanel with a TriggerCollection for AsyncPostback.

Both ways cause the Content portion of the page to reload time and time again. I was under the impression that only the functions in the UpdateTrigger collection get invoked. Is it normal for this to happen, am I setting up the Panel incorrectly?

 <asp:ScriptManager ID="smDynamicClock" runat="server"></asp:ScriptManager>
        <asp:Timer ID="Timer1" runat="server" Interval="5000" ontick="Timer1_Tick">
        </asp:Timer>

<asp:UpdatePanel runat="server" ID="upDynamicClock" ChildrenAsTriggers="False" 
                        RenderMode="Inline" UpdateMode="Conditional">
                        <ContentTemplate>
                        <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblDynamicClock"></asp:Label>
                        </ContentTemplate>
                    
                        <Triggers>
                            <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="Timer1" EventName="Tick" />
                        </Triggers>
                    
                    </asp:UpdatePanel>

Thanks
