CSS Friendly ASP.NET 2.0 Control Adapters is a little project run by Brian Goldfarb and what it does is use the power of the ControlAdapter object to change the way ASP.NET controls get rendered. They use CSS layout to control the way things look and try to remove the old table based format.

While this could be a good thing in some situations, it could be harmful in others like low resources or weird changes in the CSS laws. I let you decide for yourselves. And while the ControlAdapter approach is very elegant, I've used this concept in creating my own controls when needed by overriding ASP.NET classes and using simpler code. Also, these Control Adapters are in Beta 2 stage. Major changes are still in the works.

So don't trust it blindly, but do check it out, as it is a worthy and honorable quest :)
