ASP.NET Developer's JumpStart

Summary

Although many of the ASP.NET controls map directly to existing HTML controls, the controls shown in this chapter don't. Each of the controls shown here adds its own utility:

• The Calendar control aggregates existing HTML controls.

• The Literal and Placeholder controls allow you to create dynamic content.

You may not use these controls in every page you build, but it's useful to know that these extended controls are available, should you ever need them.
