The following code sample uses the single-file code model and may not work correctly if copied directly into a code-behind file. The first part of the code sample must be copied into an empty text file that has an .aspx extension. The second part must be in a .cs file (for C#) or a .vb file (for Visual Basic).

Remarks

The TagKey property is used primarily by control developers when deriving a custom class from the ImageButton control.

Use the TagKey property to determine the HtmlTextWriterTag value associated with an ImageButton control. This property overrides the base implementation to always return HtmlTextWriterTag.Input.
