Hello, I'm just trying to learn

Hello,

I'm just trying to learn the new ASP.NET web forms and have ran into a problem. I copied the text off the textbook and tried to run it but got the following error msg:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Control '_ctl0' of type 'TextBox' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.

------------------
The code is very simple:

<%@ Page Language="VB" %>

<html><body>
<asp:TextBox value="Welcome to ASP.NET!" runat="server"/>
</body></html>

What am I doing wrong?.. Is my IIS not set up properly?

Thanks.

Implement this:

<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<html>
<body>
<form runat="server">
<asp:TextBox value="Welcome to ASP.NET!" runat="server"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
