CssClass not Changing in Asp.net Website

I am using a MasterPage for my website, with various tabs that are placed in the the header (of the MasterPage). The code for the tabs looks like (written in C#):

<ul id="tabMenu">                 
    <li><asp:HyperLink ID="homeLink" runat="server" onclick="homeButton_Click()" 
         NavigateUrl="~/Default.aspx">Home</asp:HyperLink></li>
</ul>

This of course is a single tab, but the rest are very similar. Clicking this link triggers the homeButton_Click() in the code behind, which looks like:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    homeLink.CssClass.Insert(0, "activeTab");
}

The only difference in the current CSS class to the intended one (activeTab) is the change of the background-image. Currently when I click on this tab the CSS class does not change, and the color stays the same.

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?

Have you tried setting the css class like this instead:

homeLink.CssClass = "activeTab";
