In my example I am not creating the new textbox.. That is usercontrol... It mean by hmk. So you can get textbox value in the butten click txt = ((Textbox) hmk.findcontrol(Textbox1)).Text

Thanks again but I think there is a misunderstanding. The textbox is in hmk page so there is no meaning creating a new textbox. There is a webbrowser control and it has a textbox(in html page). and then in form there is a button. when a user write example in textbox(in html page) and then click the button I want to catch this example. string txt = ...................; ----> txt must be what user write in textbox.

Follow the correct steps. 1. Create one user control have the text box of id Textbox1 2. Register that controls as follows @ Register TagPrefix =scott TagName =header Src =~/WebUserControl.ascx %> 3. Following the user control in your page. scott : header ID =MyHeader runat =server /> 4. In the page load you can get the Textbox1 as following code. String Myvalue = (( TextBox )(MyHeader.FindControl( Textbox1 ))).Text The above is one sample example ...
