Performance : "input runat=server" or "asp:textbox"

Hello,

Does anybody have a preference of using htmlcontrols over webcontrols? If I don't need all the props of asp:textbox, should I use the html control equivalent? Are there differences in performance?

(Idem the difference between for example select runat="server" and asp:dropdownlist)

Would like to hear your thoughts.

I tend to use asp.net controls because in the future if I need to make adjustments to them and add features its easier to leave as asp.net controls.
To be honest I think the asp.net controls were created to go with the back end code.
If you arent using back end code with them, then it might as well use html controls

Performancw wise Input with Ruat=server is better. Because asp:textbox webcontrol is converted into input control from server(when it is rendered by browser). This is an extra step done by server if you use asp:textbox.

But associating data(we say its databinding) with asp:textbox is much more easier than input type with runat=server for a developer. Apart from that Asp:textbox is having more properties and methods exposed to developer which makes it more useful( makes job is easier for developer ) to developer.

I don't think you will see a huge difference as both needs to processed to render HTML input. ASP.NET engine is quick enough to do this.

Arindam Tewary wrote:

ASP.NET just converts the asp:textbox to equivalent HTML input control and emits the HTML to response and it is rendered by browser. Browser is not the one who is converting from asp:textbox HTML input.

This step is happening for input element with runat=server attribute.

In HTML server control, actually the code written is copied back to browser.
But if you have asp web server server control, AS.NET engine emits equivalent HTML output therfore a CONVERSION happens. Yah I agree system quick enough, still you cant ignore the basic difference of HTML and asp web server controls.

It was never told that browser does that conversion. It was wriiten that server does that job.

Anywaz good post by you. I must appreciate.

Not exactly. It also will go through all the phases like loading/saving viewstate etc.

It depends on purpose certainly..
but I use "input/select.. with runat=server" as much as possible because you find difficult to perform Javascript functions like "OnClick" or "OnChange" or "OnKeyUp"... likewise on server controls. It give strange error at that perticular HTML line..
Using "input/select.. with runat=server" solves that smoothly.

And as I have to use Javascripts frequently with my coding, i prefer runat=server
comments pls.

Hi Ananth,

First you can never have a OnClick or OnChange in javascript. This are server side event so you can never haandle that using javascript (No way)

In javascript what you handle is onclick and onchange event. Please check the case of this (Upper case and lower case which I mean).

Then you are not using it in the proper way. Since ASP.NET 2.0, most of the server controls provide "OnClientClick" event which can be used to hook JS methods. You can also use Attributes.Add() to add these type of attributes to the control as well.

Thank you all for your replies. My general perception from all your replies is that it doesn't really matter for simple textboxes what method one chooses.

I wonder though with a dropdownlist, with lets say a 100 entries (static, written inside the markup, so no databinding), would there be a difference in using select runat="server" and asp:dropdownlist runat="server?

I m looking to fetch data from excel file and insert in to sql server 2005 database using asp.net c# 2.0. I can do it with sqlbulk copy but I have an extra column field that is not in excel sheet. Can any one suggest me how I can insert that column data. It is basically ID field which I want to keep for table.

I have not worked with Sql BulkCopy. But have a thought.

Would it be helpful that you have an Identity column in the table which is updated by BulkCopy. So you can easily update/insert except ID column.

Thanks,

Hi Arindam,

Thanks for reply.

I too thought of keeping an identity column initially but I think its better to have any other alternative coz I want an alphanumeric value for ID and its not possible with Identity column.

SQLBULK copy will directly copy all the rows to their respective rows in sql server DB but since I dont have that ID column in Excel and hence its getting difficult for me.

Other option is to add the id column to excel file but data is in thousands so....

Any suggestions?

Here is one nice and complete link you can follow:

Also, if you are using .NET 3.5, then all this trouble can be saved by using a DataPager control.
