Example

HTMLGeneric
Declare one HtmlInputText controls, one HtmlInputButton control, and one HtmlGeneric control (the <p> tag) in an .aspx file (remember to embed the controls inside an HtmlForm control). When the submit button is triggered, the submit subroutine is executed. The submit subroutine writes a welcome message to the p element.
