• Re: Non-Indenting Treeview

  Pardon me for butting in, but are you trying to implement a vertical menu without "flyout" submenus? If so, take a look at the SlideMenu from Obout ( www.obout.com ). The basic version is free, is CSS-friendly, and works quite well.

• Re: Bound and Template HeaderText overlaying DataField and ItemTemplate Text when rendering PrettyDetailsView

  When trying to figure out this sort of ASP.NET stuff, I find myself constantly viewing the page in my browser, then right-clicking and selecting 'View Source'. I then save that to a .htm file and begin 'hacking' that. Once I get the HTML/CSS to behave, I can then try and re-incorporate this into my aspx page. Sadly, ASP.NET "gets in the way" so much sometimes that trying to make simple changes often results in major changes to the output, and I personally think this gets in the way of resolving the

• Re: Bound and Template HeaderText overlaying DataField and ItemTemplate Text when rendering PrettyDetailsView

  From reading your original post, it's unclear to me whether or not you can achieve the desired result without the adapters. Here's what I'd do: take the generated HTML and make the necessary CSS changes to get things lining up properly. In other words, remove .Net from the equation for a while and get the solution working in pure HTML/CSS. After all, the adapters are nothing more than a mechanism to allow you to render the output more properly. What you are trying to do sounds quite simple, so I

• Re: Creating an Image adapter

  Russ, Once again, a perfect example of (a) how silly it is the MS doesn't properly support CSS and, more importantly, (b) how freakin' cool this adapter "framework" is. A developer now has two solid tools in his box: writing a new control to replace the existing one if the changes are functional, or simply adapting the existing one if only the styling is at issue.

• Re: Problems with Registration Control

  I don't have those sample projects in front of me (client site), but perhaps there is logic in examplepage.aspx that is needed. Changing where your page inherits from may just require adding this functionality to your base.

• Re: How do I make only one control to use CSS Adapters

  OK, just so I'm clear - if I have any user-written controls that derive from a control that has an adapter enabled, then the user-written control will get "adapted" as well unless all the rendering stuff if overridden? If so, then I guess the approach would have to be (a) write an adapter that works just like the existing one, but that only handles a derived control, then (b) make a derived control for the "normal" instances that does nothing but defer to the base class. i.e. DataList1 would actually

• Re: How do I make only one control to use CSS Adapters

  It's not a simple solution, and I haven't even "thought about beginning to play around with trying to experiment" with it, but couldn't you do it by creating user controls inheriting from the controls you didn't want to adapt that did nothing more than implement the base control? That way, wouldn't the adapter find the "menu" controls (for example) but not the "mymenu" controls?

• Re: two level tab menu

  Sorry, I haven't really analyzed the code that closely. My point in posting it was to illustrate that perhaps the menu control isn't the best way for you to go. If there is an all-CSS or all-CSS/js solution that fits your need, then all that remains is to make it dynamic. After all, the menu control (and the adapter) really doesn't do ANYTHING much except "protect" you from the implementation. Simply put, and with all due respect to Russ and his fine efforts to close the gap between how MS sees things

• Re: two level tab menu

  Check this link: http://www.tjkdesign.com/articles/dropdown/demo.asp It's pure CSS, so it's not an exact answer. Perhaps it will make a good target to drive toward.

• Re: Updated the precompiled adapter assembly to 1.0

  Russ, Thanks for the clarification. I remember that design bit from reading the docs, but I guess I read his wording in the post a little too inclusively. All that being said, it's a great addition to the toolkit. I've really found these adapters quite useful, and this makes them even easier.
