# ASP.NET Button Control

Web Server Controls

## Definition and Usage

The Button control is used to display a push button. The push button may be a submit button or a command button. By default, this control is a submit button.

A submit button does not have a command name and it posts the Web page back to the server when it is clicked. It is possible to write an event handler to control the actions performed when the submit button is clicked.

A command button has a command name and allows you to create multiple Button controls on a page. It is possible to write an event handler to control the actions performed when the command button is clicked.
