Only poorly written ASP.NET software will use Response.Write, actually scratch that, because it can be the only option in some cases (for instance if you're writing a http module).
The <%# tag is needed for databinding, so you can't really get away without using it, but theres no need whatsoever to put the page logic in those blocks.
The de-facto way to structure an ASP.NET page is to have the page logic in a seperate file to the HTML, which is quite confusing to get used to at first, but once you get used to object orientation it seems like the right thing.
The idea is that if you wanted a simple page that regurgitated the users name when they press submit, you would structure it like this:
WebForm.aspx:
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<html>
...
<asp:Label id="lblName" runat="server"></asp:Label>
<p>
Full Name: <asp:TextBox id="txtName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button id="submit" runat="server">Submit</asp:Button>
</p>
..
</html>
WebForm.aspx.cs
using System;
using System.Web;
public class WebForm
{
//visual studio generated code here
//this is called automatically when the button is set
public void submit_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//set the text of the label to the value of the text box
lblName.Text = txtName.Text;
}
}
