Access html control value from code-behind

Question

Hi all...

 

I have HTML Controls as -

 

<div class="cont-input fl"><input name="" type="text" value="Name" onBlur="if(this.value=='') this.value='Name';" onFocus="if(this.value=='Name') this.value='';" id="txtName" runat="server" ></div>

 

Issue - When I type a name say "Mahesh Sharma" , then I want to access the value "Mahesh Sharma" in code-behind (aspx.cs file).

 

When I type - txtName.Value - I get "Name" as Value.

 

How to access the user-entered value from backend ?
