Skins in Asp.Net

[shapper]

Hello,

Can't I use other control tags in my Asp.Net skin files?

Thanks,
Miguel

What do you mean by "control tags?"

If you're using Visual Studio 2005 select a control id in HTML source view.
The properties of the control will be displayed in the Property Window.
Those properties may be used to skin the control.

Hi,

I mean if I can use Skins with a custom control.

For example.

<Company:CustomControl> ...

Or only the Asp native controls

Thanks,
Miguel

Good question.

Not knowing any better I don't see why not but you'd probably have to use
Attributes to add the SkinID property to the control or perhaps create a
Composite Control and use the SkinID on the controls being reused.

Have you asked at [1,2]?
