Why is my code and the "view Source" Browser code different? Where did that javascript stuff come from?

Here is my code:
Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Codebehind="restaurants.aspx.vb" Inherits="restaurants.restaurants1"%>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN&quot;>

<body bgColor=&quot;#bbbbee&quot; MS_POSITIONING=&quot;GridLayout&quot;>

</body>
</HTML>

When I run my little program and view source this is what I get:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN&quot;>

<meta content=&quot; name=&quot;vs_targetSchema&quot;>
</HEAD>
<body bgColor=&quot;#bbbbee&quot; MS_POSITIONING=&quot;GridLayout&quot;>
<form name=&quot;Form1&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;restaurants.aspx&quot; id=&quot;Form1&quot;>
<input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;__EVENTTARGET&quot; value=&quot;&quot; />
<input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;__EVENTARGUMENT&quot; value=&quot;&quot; />
<input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;__VIEWSTATE&quot; value=&quot;aaa to zzz&quot; />

<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
<!--
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
var theform = document.Form1;
theform.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget;
theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
theform.submit();
}
// -->
</script>

<table cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; rules=&quot;all&quot; bordercolor=&quot;#999999&quot; border=&quot;1&quot; id=&quot;DataGrid1&quot; style=&quot;color:Black;background-color:#CCCCCC;border-color:#999999;height:596px;width:817px;border-collapse:collapse;Z-INDEX: 101; LEFT: 21px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 24px&quot;>

</td><td>
etc.

The beauty of ASP.NET. Most of the features of this new technology results in a set of functions written in a script language (that you can choose, javascript by default).

That's what the net framework is all about. It takes your code on the server side and generates standard HTML and Javascript back to the browser. That's how server side code is able to work without having to do a lot of extra versions for each browser. It's a great solution.
