LinkButton control
The LinkButton control renders as a hyperlink in the page. However, it contains client-side script that causes the form to be posted back to the server. (You can create a true hyperlink by using the Hyperlink control.)
To add a LinkButton control to a page
Drag the LinkButton control from the Toolbox task pane to your page.
Set properties for the control in the Tag Properties task pane.
