Controls

Web Server Control: provide a programming model that is more conducive to visual design environments similar to VB I think you should read this article: http://www.msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/msdnmag/issues/01/09/asp/toc.asp Usage wise i have seen people prefer HTML controls to hande client site events (javascript) and ServerControls to hande server side events. you can add runat server attribute to htmlcontrols and handle server side events also <asp:textbox> vs the <input runat=server> tags , when to use one and the other, it's up to what you're doing. In general, I would go with the webcontrols. Regards, Jignesh Desai.
