ASP.NET in a Nutshell

Name

HtmlButton

Synopsis

This class represents the HTML 4.0 <button> tag, which is only supported in Internet Explorer 4.0 and later. It differs from other button types, including the standard HtmlInputButton control, because it can be composed from embedded HTML elements like images and other ASP.NET server controls. As with all buttons, it provides a click event that you can handle directly (HtmlInputButton.ServerClick) and a property that lets you disable automatic page validation when a postback is triggered by this control (HtmlInputButton.CausesValidation).
