Example 1

In the following example we declare an HtmlTable control and an HtmlInputButton 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 modifies the background color and the border color of the table, it also changes the contents of the cells:

<script runat="server">
  Sub submit(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) 
    dim i,j
    t1.BGColor="yellow"
    t1.BorderColor="red"
    for i=0 To t1.Rows.Count-1
      for j=0 To t1.Rows(i).Cells.Count-1
        t1.Rows(i).Cells(j).InnerHtml="Row " & i 
      next
    next
  End Sub
</script>

<html>
<body>
<form runat="server">
<table id="t1" border="1" runat="server">
  <tr>
    <td>Cell 1</td>
    <td>Cell 2</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Cell 3</td>
    <td>Cell 4</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<br />
<input type="button" value="Change Contents"
OnServerClick="submit" runat="server"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
