Asp.Net provides way to work with the HTML Server controls on the server side programming with a set controls collectively called HTML Controls. These controls are grouped together in the Visual Studio Toolbox in the the HTML Control tab. The markup of the controls are similar to the HTML control. These controls lets the developer program against the HTML controls in the serverside.
HTML elements in ASP.NET files are, by default, treated as text. To make these elements programmable, add a runat="server" attribute to the HTML element. This attribute indicates that the element should be treated as a server control.
Here is a list of the HTML controls provided with Asp.Net
The ASP.NET Wiki was started by Scott Hanselman in February of 2008. The idea is that folks spend a lot of time trolling the blogs, googlinglive-searching for answers to common "How To" questions. There's piles of fantastic community-created and MSFT-created content out there, but if it's not found by a search engine and the right combination of keywords, it's often lost.
The ASP.NET Wiki articles moved to CodeProject in October 2013 and will live on, loved, protected and updated by the community.
