[asp.net] Asp.net Hyperlink control equivalent to <a href="#"></a>

I wanted to define a HyperLink control in asp.net that produces html output similar to the following:

<a href="#"></a>

but can't figure out how. would be thankful if anyone could help.
Thanks in advance.

Asp:Hyperlink http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.hyperlink.aspx

If you want to add the value on aspx page , Just enter <a href='your link'>clickhere</a>

If you are trying to achieve it via Code-Behind., Make use of the Hyperlink control

HyperLink hl1 = new HyperLink();
hl1.text="Click Here";
hl1.NavigateUrl="http://www.stackoverflow.com";

If you need to access this as a server-side control (e.g. you want to add data attributes to a link, as I did), then there is a way to do what you want; however, you don't use the Hyperlink or HtmlAnchor controls to do it. Create a literal control and then add in "Your Text" as the text for the literal control (or whatever else you need to do that way). It's hacky, but it works.

hyperlink1.NavigateUrl = "#"; or
hyperlink1.attributes["href"] = "#"; or
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="#" runat="server" />

Just write <a href="#"></a>.

If that's what you want, you don't need a server-side control.
