Indeed, the key issue is how do you access the keyed in data.
for one page I append an identifier to each repeated control, txtAddress_1,
txtAddress_2 etc.
Then you can iterate the controls, determine their function based on the
name and do something useful with the data content.

I need to write different kind of forms that the customer can use to
enter data and save the data into database. (The data access will be hand
coded)
My problem is that the form may vary .
I therefore need an engine , that can produce the form based on let say
an xml file.
The form may contain textboxes, buttons , labels , pictures etc...
I have heard of xslt. Is it the way to go?
Is there other smart ways of doing this. If any asp.net beta 2 feature
allows this, please let me know.
Many thanks in advance

I don't think xslt is going to buy you anything for asp.net because you
won't be able to access the output in the code behind. I would suggest
parsing the xml file and dynamically adding server controls (i.e.
System.Web.UI.WebControl.TextBox/DropDownList etc.) to the page or
something like that. At least you will be able to programatically
access the inputs.
