On your aspx page define the HTML Button element with the usual suspects  runat  class  title  etc   If this element is part of a data bound control  i e   grid view  etc   you may want to use CommandName and possibly CommandArgument as attributes   Add your button s content and closing tag    lt button id  cmdAction       runat  server  onserverclick  cmdAction Click         class  Button Styles       title  Does something on the server        lt  -- for databound controls -- gt      CommandName  cmdname  gt       CommandArgument  args          gt       lt  -- content -- gt       lt span class  ui-icon      gt  lt  span gt       lt span class  push  gt Click Me lt  span gt   lt  button gt    On the code behind page the element would call the handler that would be defined as the element s ID Click event function   protected void cmdAction Click object sender  EventArgs e      do something      There are other solutions as in using custom controls  etc  Also  note that I am using this live on projects in VS2K8   Hoping this helps  Enjoy

The easiest way to accomplish this is to override the RaisePostBackEvent method     lt input type  button  ID  btnRaisePostBack  runat  server  onclick  raisePostBack           gt    And in your JavaScript   raisePostBack   function          doPostBack   lt   btnRaisePostBack ClientID  gt             And in your code   protected override void RaisePostBackEvent IPostBackEventHandler source  string eventArgument          call the RaisePostBack event      base RaisePostBackEvent source  eventArgument        if  source    btnRaisePostBack                   do some logic

If you are OK with converting the input button to a server side control by specifying runat  server   and you are using asp net  an option could be using the HtmlButton OnServerClick property    lt input id  foo  runat  server  type  button  onserverclick  foo OnClick    gt    This should work and call foo OnClick in your server side code  Also notice that based on Microsoft documentation linked above  you should also be able to use the HTML 4 0  tag

You may use event handler serverclick as below    cmdAction is the id of HTML button as below   lt body gt       lt form id  form1  runat  server  gt           lt button type  submit  id  cmdAction  text  Button1  runat  server  gt              Button1          lt  button gt       lt  form gt   lt  body gt      cs code  public partial class  Default   System Web UI Page               protected void Page Load object sender  EventArgs e                            cmdAction ServerClick    new EventHandler submit click                        protected void submit click object sender  EventArgs e                        Response Write  HTML Server Button Control
