System.Web.UI.WebControls Namespace

.NET Framework 4

The System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace contains classes that allow you to create Web server controls on a Web page. Web server controls run on the server and include form controls such as buttons and text boxes. They also include special-purpose controls such as a calendar. Because Web server controls run on the server, you can programmatically control these elements. Although Web server controls are rendered as HTML, their object model does not necessarily reflect HTML syntax.

The System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace contains classes that are rendered as HTML tags, such as the TextBox control and the ListBox control. The namespace also contains classes that are not rendered on the Web page, but support data operations, such as the SqlDataSource and ObjectDataSource classes. Other controls, such as the GridView and DetailsView controls, support data display and editing. The WebControl class serves as the base class for many of the classes in the System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace.
