If I have an html input "<input id="score1" type="text" value=""/>" and want to initialize it on the c# page load, but I don't want to use asp controls.How do I do it?
Thanks

You can use server-side plain HTML controls, by just using runat="server".
For instance:
<input type="text" runat="server" id="myTextBox" />
// ...and then in the code-behind...
myTextBox.Value = "harbl";

...and for the record these are typically known as "Hybrid Controls" in the ASP.NET realm. Not quite HTML controls, not quite Web Controls.

I've never seen them referred to as hybrid controls. They've always been HTML Controls.
Matthew Groves
I like the "Hybrid Controls" term though
John Saunders
You can like it, but what if nobody else uses it?

Never heard the Hybrid Controls either, but it is a good term. Don't think I'll "switch" from saying HTML Controls though.
<input id="score1" type="text" runat="server" value=""/>
Then in your page's load event:
score1.Value = "some value";

You could set a property on the page codebehind, the access the property on the page
public class MyPage
{
public string InputDefaultContent { get; set; }
private void Page_Load(object s, EventArgs e)
{
InputDefaultContent = "Blah";
}
}
then on the page
<input type="text" value="<%= InputDefaultContent %>" />

<input type='text' value='default value' />
