Answer 1

to my understanding you have to keep in mind that there is a cliend side code that will execute, for example javascript in your browser, and asp/c# code that will execute on the server.

So having this control:

Button1_Click will execute on the server, in microsoft world it is IIS, on the other hand you have just a pure html control, where you hook up a javascript function for the click event

So the server side has nothing to do with this part, this code will execute on your machine, in your browser.
