using System;

using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

public partial class HTMLControlsDemo : System.Web.UI.Page

protected void SubmitForm(object sender, EventArgs e)

string name = txtName.Value;

string email = txtEmail.Value;

string gender = radMale.Checked ? "Male" : radFemale.Checked ? "Female" : "Not


selected";

string hobbies = "";

if (chkReading.Checked) hobbies += "Reading ";

if (chkSports.Checked) hobbies += "Sports ";

lblMessage.InnerHtml = $"Submitted:<br/>Name: {name}<br/>Email:


{email}<br/>Gender: {gender}<br/>Hobbies: {hobbies}";

Points to Remember:

Task How to Do It
Enable server interaction Use runat="server" and assign an id
Read from input field Use .Value instead of .Text (for HTML inputs)
Task How to Do It
Use HtmlInput* classes e.g., HtmlInputText, HtmlInputCheckBox, HtmlGenericControl
