In this example we declare an HtmlTextarea control, an HtmlInputButton control,  and an HtmlGeneric control in an .aspx file (remember to embed the controls inside an HtmlForm control). When the submit button is triggered, the submit subroutine is executed. The submit subroutine sends the message "You wrote: " and the text the user wrote in the text area to the p element.
