Re: echo user input

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Yes you can have a server control do this. But without posting back every
key stroke, you will need do to the bulk of the work client side. It will
not be a happy user experience if they must wait after each keypress for the
page to reload.

Remember that web programming is disconnected. After the page is rendered
and sent to the browser, the only way to have server side functionality is
to have the page post back to get the server involved.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
