How to set text data member of ASP.NET control (say RadioButton) as HTML Tag?

For example,
<asp:RadioButton ID="RadioButton1" runat="server" GroupName="f1" text="<input type="text"/>"/>
renders a HTML Text Box in browser.
How can this be avoided?
Any alternative??

Try it from server side using htmlencode. It will work.

ASP.NET

<pre lang="c#"><asp:radiobutton id="RadioButton1" runat="server" groupname="f1" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />

C#

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       string button = "<input type=button value=Search name=btnSearch />";
       RadioButton1.Text = Server.HtmlEncode(button);
   }
