About RadButton for ASP.NET AJAX

When you need the features of the standard asp Button, LinkButton and ImageButton controls enhanced with built-in text and images, toggle and split button modes, single click functionality and rich client side API, the Teleik ASP.NET Button is the control that can easily fulfill all these requirements. "Dress" it with the set of predefined skins we provide and the buttons on your web forms will have the consistent and appealing look and feel as the rest of the Telerik AJAX controls you use.

RadButton and 120+ other controls are part of UI for ASP.NET AJAX, a comprehensive toolset taking care of the common functionality of your application, while leaving you with more time to work on its business logic.
