ASP.NET Button Control
Definition and Usage
The Button control is used to display buttons. The button can be a submit button or a command button. By default, the control is a submit button.
The submit button does not have a command name, and when it is clicked, it will return the web page to the server. You can write event handlers to control the action to be executed when the submit button is clicked.
The command button has a command name and allows you to create multiple button controls on the page. You can write event handlers to control the action to be executed when the command button is clicked.
