0	in markup (.aspx file) controls should be in runat='server' then only you can access the particular control. ex.. <input id="textbox" name="textbox1" /> the above html control you cant access in .cs file but you can access in javascript function. <input id="textbox" name="textbox1" runat="server" /> you can access in .cs file and javascript also.

ex..

<input id="textbox" name="textbox1" />

the above html control you cant access in .cs file but you can access in javascript function.

<input id="textbox" name="textbox1" runat="server" />

you can access in .cs file and javascript also.

0	I got the answer. Actually when we add control with runat="server" it is added in designer.cs file. This file contain class which is the same class which your page inherits. designer.cs and codebehind files will be merged at runtime (as both have partial class definition) into single one. Hence we are able to access controls added in aspx markup with rinat="server" in codebehind. Thanks for the reply for my forum guys.[I really need to brush up my knowledge again. really :) ] SurajRane, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
