Brian lets the world know: the
control adapters are on the loose!
These are not only great versions of a few of the ASP.NET 2.0 controls that fix (IMO) problems with table-heavy output, but they are also great examples of writing adapters that change the outputted HTML from the controls. No more do people need to complain that the controls emit code not to their satisfaction, now you can 'adjust' as needed.
For example - -the menu control by default renders a complex set of tables and spans to create itself. In a perfect world it would render a set of <ul> and <li> tags that would be styled and controlled through CSS. The menu control adapter accomplishes this. Each of the other samples improves the CSS friendliness of the control rendering in similar amazing ways.
