ASP.net bind expression

I am looking into some code in a open source ASP.net web app - NopCommerce. There is a binding expression in the tag that I never seen before. Can someone tell me what it is? How does this loginbutton get fired with out the "onclick" attribute? Where can I find the source code class in the Solution?

Thanks

<asp:Button ID="LoginButton" runat="server" CommandName="Login" Text="<% $NopResources:Login.LoginButton %>

This is using ASP.Net Expressions, usually used for Connection Strings and implicit resource binding.

They can be customized and extended. In this case, the application (NopCommerce) has a custom resource builder:
