<form runat="server">
Enter your name: <input id="name" type="text" size="30" runat="server" />
<br /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" OnServerClick="submit" runat="server" />
<p id="p1" runat="server" />
</form>

</body>
</html>

Output Result:
Enter your name:

  

IF you enter your name like"shaohai" and then click the button"submit", if will shows:
Enter your name:

Welcome shaohai! 


In this example we declare one HtmlInputText controls, one HtmlInputButton control, and one HtmlGeneric control in an .aspx file (remember to embed the controls inside an HtmlForm control). When the submit button is triggered, the submit subroutine is executed. The submit subroutine writes a welcome message to the p element.
