well all, thanks for replying me. I am really new to asp.net and I am not able to understand how to work. For example a I have a page which has two textboxes and a button. I can read the markup html text of the same but how can I write some code behind it if I can not move to its click event? Simply for example if I have to write a conditional statement that if textbox one is blank the user should get a message about it otherwise a greeting should be passed to the name entered in the textbox. what i know, i will not write it in html markup, and it will be written in .cs file only. I know how to do it from c# windows programming but the most biggest problem is how to get the click event of the button here? I already said that I am unable to find these controls on tab, and as suggested by someone I have tried to highlight the text of html code for that controle and then navigated to designer but still I am not placed on the place I want to. Even if I open the file with notepad, only the code for page_load is written there, where is the code for button click, textboxes etc. Please help me how can I do it, its really important for me.
