Hi all,
I hope this doesn't sound like a lame question, but I want to override
Gridview.Render so I can strip out ALL styling elements and use CSS
for my styling. I am pretty sure I can figure it out, if I could just
get at the code that is currently called by GridView.Render. Can
anyone help me out?

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
the thing you are looking for is Adapter. Adapter framework allows to
override how the web controls are rendered. I recommend you to start from
already created Adapter, because you will very quickly discover all important
features. Good implementation are CssFriendlyAdapter -

Ladislav

Use Lutz Roeder's Reflector product to decompile the Render method so you can
see what it does.
