Good news for ASP.NET developers looking to make their websites more CSS friendly. Microsoft has released ASP.NET 2.0 CSS Friendly Control Adapters 1.0. Microsoft has also made sure that the
kit will deliver support for Windows Vista using IIS7.

"ASP.NET is a great technology for building web sites but it would be even better if it provided more flexibility for customizing the rendered HTML. You can modify any ASP.NET control so it produces exactly the HTML you want. The key is to use control adapters," reveals a product description from asp.net.

Via these little pieces of logic added to a website, a developer can adapt an ASP.NET control to produce the HTML. "The ASP.NET 2.0 CSS Friendly Control Adapters kit provides pre-built control adapters that you can easily use to generate CSS friendly markup from some of the more commonly used ASP.NET controls," added asp.net.

In ASP.NET 2.0 CSS Friendly Control Adapters 1.0, for the sake of functionality, the Redmond Company has limited the volume of modifications compared to the last beta of the product.

Added control's ID as an attribute in the adapted rendering to support UpdatePanel, etc.
