HTML 4.01 Strict Rendering

=?Utf-8?B?TUNN?=

Is it possible to have .NET controls render as HTML 4.01 Strict compliant?

In web.config, there is xhtml conformance, but that does not provide an
option for HTML 4.01.

Hi MCM,

As for the control rendering so far it is based on the control adapter be
configured for the certain controls(for certain browsers), you can refer to
some reference about the control adpaters:

#Extreme ASP.NET Control Adapters
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163543.aspx

#ASP.NET 2.0 Control Adapter Architecture
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archi...control-adapte
r-architecture.as px

Also, so far ASP.NET only suppor the three xhtmlconformanc e settings which
will validate the page's output markup against those xhtml
compliance(tran sitional or strict. If you want some html 4.01 conformance
output, you may need to look for some 3rd party control adapters that help
format the control output as HTML 4.01 compliant.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng

HTML & ALL Current Tools are really back to ASSEMBLY language, Whatever happend to Libraries/Functions/Reuse and highlevel stuff ?

by: Mel | last post by:

Are we going backwards ? (please excuse my spelling...) In my opinion an absolute YES ! Take a look at what we are doing ! we create TAGS, things like <H1> etc. and although there are tools (dreamweaver and the like), they are all at the lowest level of programming (something like assembly as oposed to C++ etc.). These tools create "brain-dead" developers that constantly have to plough through tons of tags to do the simplest thing. ...

CSS versus HTML tables

by: sinister | last post by:

I wanted to spiff up my overly spartan homepage, and started using some CSS templates I found on a couple of weblogs. It looks fine in my browser (IE 6.0), but it doesn't print right. I tested the blogs, and one definitely didn't print right. Surveying the web, my impression is that CSS is very unreliable, because even updated browsers fail to implement the standards correctly. So should one just avoid CSS? Or is it OK if used...

Hello, I have read about the problems that IE has when using a doctype of HTML 4.01 Transitional. I was advised to use Strict wherever possible. My question is, does the same apply to XHTML 1.0 Transitional? I develop sites using ASP.NET, which emits valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional, but not XHTML 1.0 Strict (for example, it includes a hidden form field with the name of _VIEWSTATE, which isn't valid in Strict, but is in Transitional).
