>I have to upgrade to ASP.Net and at the end of day 1, I'm looking to pick the experience of an expert! I read about HTML controls and Web controls and fully expected to be using HTML controls due to cross browser issues.
>
>However, I just tried using these Web-Controls in NetScape 6 and was surprised to see it handle them. So now I'm wanting to know if it's safe to use web-controls for cross-browser sites, as I don't want to trust them only to later discover some do work, some don't and some kinda work but with their own take on the world...
>
>For clarity, from the book I'm using, I understand HTML controls to be something like:
>

<Input id=txtTextBox RunAt=Server>

>
>And Web-Controls to be:
>

<asp:TextBox id=txtTextBox Runat=server />

>Thanks...
