Example
- HTMLGeneric
- In this example, we declare an HtmlInputText control, an HtmlInputButton control, and an HtmlGeneric control (the <p> tag) in the .aspx file. Remember to nest this control within the HtmlForm control. When the submit button is triggered, the submit subroutine will be executed. The submit subroutine will write a welcome message to the p element.
