>> Avoid using the pre-wrapped ASP.NET controls. DataGrids aren't so bad, but you get much more mark-up control by using a Repeater. Similarly, rather than using an asp:label, there's a mark-upless version that doesn't insert <span> elements. I forget the name, sorry, but it does exist.
I think Ben might be referring to the <asp:literal> control. I use this quite a lot as it gives you complete control over your HTML output. Also, I've implemented the free XHTML Strict filter from Rider Design. Works great. It essentially captures the HTTP stream before it hits the client and adjusts the stream to ensure compliance. http://www.riderdesign.com/products/ I must admit, I try and avoid the web controls that create the markup for you. I generally call on my own classes that generate compliant markup.
