Web standards?

[Amil]

Interesting that a "find" on this newgroup doesn't result in any discussion
of standards?

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had a good link or guide on developing
with ASP.NET and recommended practices to adhere to standards? For example,
I know Visual Studio uses inline styles in many places which should be a
no-no for XHTML.

Does anyone have a guide or something that would help in migrating HTML to
more of a standards-based XHTML...and how this relates to using Visual
Studio?

Hi Amil,

Bad news : asp.net 1.0/1.1 produces html that does not validate
Good news : asp.net 2.0 does comply 100% and the asp.net team is committed
to this

So how do we solve the prob in the meantime?
I had success with asp.net 1.0/1.1 when using a filter that basicly does
a search and replace of the page just before it is sent to the browser.
The links below describe such an approuch.

The easiest solution can be found here : http://www.riderdesign.com/products/
