Submit TextBox From Within A Repeater

I want to do something simple. I have a text box in a repeater Item that will allow people to add a note to the item. My code is not working, it doesn't seem like anything is happening at all.

ASPX: 

        <asp:Repeater ID="rptList" runat="server" ViewStateMode="Enabled">
                            <HeaderTemplate></HeaderTemplate>

                            <ItemTemplate>

  <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
                                        <ContentTemplate>
                                    <asp:TextBox ID="NoteTextBox" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
   <asp:Button ID="SubmitNote" runat="server" Text="Button" OnClick="lnkClient_Click" CommandName="AddNote" CommandArgument='<%# Eval("UID")%>'/>                                       


    <asp:Label ID="ShowNotes" runat="server" Text='<%# getNotes(Eval("UID").ToString())%>'></asp:Label>
                                            </ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

CODEBEHIND - This is what should be executed on click. I replaced my SQL code with Response.Write:

public void lnkClient_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Button btn = (Button)(sender);
        string FID = btn.CommandArgument.ToString();            
        string note = ((TextBox)rptList.Items[0].FindControl("NoteTextBox")).Text;
        Response.Write(FID + " " + note);

    }

UPDATE: Changed some settings and now the only problem I am having is that the text entered client side is not passed to the command.

Try this

 protected void Repeater_OnItemCommand(object source, RepeaterCommandEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.CommandName.Equals("AddNote"))
            {       
            string FID =e.CommandArgument.ToString();    
            TextBox txtNote=e.Item.FindControl("NoteTextBox") as TextBox;    
            string note=txtNote.Text; 
            Response.Write(FID + " " + note);
            }
    }

and in Mark up

<asp:Repeater ID="rptList" runat="server" OnItemCommand="Repeater_OnItemCommand" ViewStateMode="Enabled">
