Html Controls
The important features of HTML server controls are:

1. Generate own interface
When an ASP.NET page is rendered, the HTML tag is created automatically and sent to the client.

2. Retain their state
The HTTP protocol is stateless. Therefore, the normal web pages do not retain their state. But, HTML server controls automatically retains the state.

3. Trigger Server Side Events
HTML controls can fire the server side events which are executed on the server side. For example, when a button is clicked.
