Web server controls are special ASP.NET tags understood by the server.

## Web Server Controls

Like HTML server controls, Web server controls are also created on the server and they require a runat="server" attribute to work. However, Web server controls do not necessarily map to any existing HTML elements and they may represent more complex elements.

The syntax for creating a Web server control is:

<asp:control_name id="some_id" runat="server" />
