Answer / rameshp

ASP.Net Server Controls:

1. ASP .NET Server Controls can detect the target
browser’s capabilities and render themselves accordingly.
No issues for compatibility issues of Browsers i.e page
that might be used by both HTML 3.2 and HTML 4.0 browsers
code is written in the Server Controls.

2. Newer set of controls that can be used in the same
manner as any HTML control like Calender controls. Without
any need of Activex Control without bringing up issues of
Browser compatibility).

3. Processing would be done at the server side. In built
functionality to check for few values(with Validation
controls) so no need to choose between scripting language
which would be incompatible with few browsers.


HTML Server Controls:

1. The HTML Server Controls follow the HTML-centric object
model. Model similar to HTML

2. Here the controls can be made to interact with Client
side scripting. Processing would be done at client as well
as server depending on your code.

3. A HTML Server Control has similar abstraction with its
corresponding HTML tag and offers no abstraction.
