Dynamically adding asp:button to web form using jQuery append() method

I am trying to add an ASP.Net Button programatically using jQuery append method to HTML. Here is the code:

$("#form1 #container").append('<div id="cool"><asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" >/div> ');

But somehow it shows this error

Control 'Button1' of type 'Button' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.

Please help me. Thanks.

That is not possible, jquery can only append html controls not server controls. Have a look at this.

Diff. b/w server and html controls

It is not possible to add an asp:button to a page via javascript as it is a server-side control.

You can add a plain HTML <button /> to the page, but it will not be hooked up to postback and viewstate as an asp:button would be - you would need some method of doing that manually if required.
