What is .Net equivilent of Fieldset/Legend

[Harry Keck]

I want to set up my UI to display a titled box around a group of controls,
like an html Fieldset with a Legend does, but I would like to do it entirely
with a ASP.Net controls. Is there a way to do this? I can put a panel
around a group of controls, but I do not know how to get text to display like
a legend does.

AFIK none of the native controls emit fieldset and legend HTML elements.
You'd have to override the rendering method(s) of the native control(s) or
develop your own controls. Nice choice huh ;-)

If you want to access it programmatically you can just try using it as an
HTML control

<fieldset ID="Group1" runat="server">
....
</fieldset>

The code-behind type would be
System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlContainerControl (or equivalent from the
hierarchy)

As was said, rendering is one approach as well.
