It seems that you added runat="server" to HTML controls and expect binding to magically function.

I recommend that you go through a few Getting Started tutorials related to data bound controls and working with data in Web Forms.  If you need very customized HTML then look into the repeater.

Hi Zainab Mostafa hashem,

Welcome to ASP.NET forums.

Firstly, if you'd like to retrieve records of event from your database table, and display data on web form via data binding, as others mentioned, you can try to use data-bound control.

Besides, if you just want to dynamically display data that stored in database on web page, you can also use jQuery AJAX to call web method to retrieve records and dynamically populate/generate html based on returned data on client side.

With Regards,

Fei Han
