I think it's a matter of aesthetics and how much work you want your server to
do.
You should remember that a simple <a href="http://greyskin.co.uk> hyper
link</a> does not require a trip back to the server, whereas a sever control
(LinkButton) does.
I would say, use a LinkButton if you need to do some server-side processing
when the user navigates away (usually a LinkButton will have a link to a URL
within the same application), otherwise use a hyperlink.

Hello Bill,
I was referring to the HyperLink and LinkButton web server controls.
I'm building tabbed navigation for the first time. Setting the CssClass
property in the Click event of a LinkButton leaves the LinkButton active.
When I set the LinkButton Enabled property to false the Text property
remains displayed (desireable) but is greyed out (undesireable) and at the
moment I have yet to determine how I might work around this.

I understand. I don't see greyed out properties used much in web forms. Not
at all that I have seen now that I think about it. The problem is the
properties of the control are all or nothing and can not be over-ridden
using CSS once the Enabled property is set to false.
After a quick review of the source I found what may be a solution [1]. For
now due to time constraints I can cope with the greyed out text properties.

I have a user control being used instead of a frame page. when the user
clicks on a menu item I need to send the ID (integer value) of that menu as
a parameter in the postback of the user control which will be used to query
sql server to repopulate the datagrid in the user control.
I also wrapped the user control in a panel element so I could position it on
the page.
I'm clueless on how to get started with this.

Using the LinkButton control on a web form, how can I make the clicking of

I know how to do it with the normal anchor tag, but not this ASP.NET

I need the clicking of the LinkButton to call the click event handler to
execute some code, then redirect to another page, but the other page is in
the new browser window. And, we don't want to use JavaScript, such as:
