html controls in asp.net code-behind

Question

hi im making a website in asp.net for a project. im also learning myself jquery on my own. Now i have a problem with linking the jquery with the asp controls but it works when i use html controls. i dint know how to code in asp "<script>" tags, but i can in the code-behind which is c# and im familiar with that. i googled and saw that all i need to add in the html control was "runat="server", i did that and the jquery works fine but now im forced to code in the "<script>" tag.

i must do an insert, delete, update query for my site so i have to code the button to perform those actions. (thats the only way i know how)

i also saw that using an html textbox and an asp button can work by putting in the code behind this" request[txt]" thats if my html control is "<input type="text" name="txt"/>

can someone please help me...

thanks

You can use this way: runat=server > Also you can use runat=server to make your html control accessed in aspx code behind. To get the value in JQuery : var txtURL = '#' + ' ClientID %>'; alert($(txtURL).val()); //To Set Value $(txtURL).val(Demo); Hope this will help you.
