Creating an asp:Button programmatically?

Question

I'm using my code-behind page to create a save button programmatically:

    Button btnSave = new Button();
    btnSave.ID = "btnSave";
    btnSave.Text = "Save";

However I think this must create an html button or perhaps needs something else as I cannot seem to set the OnClick attribute in the following line, I can specify OnClientClick but this isn't the one I want to set.

Button btnSave = new Button();    
btnSave.ID = "btnSave";    
btnSave.Text = "Save";  
btnSave.Click += new System.EventHandler(btnSave_Click);

protected void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //do something when button clicked. 
}
