.Net and Web Standards

Zeldman comments on the problems of making standards-compliant pages with Microsoft's .NET framework. Turns out that .NET's HTML controls (things like form elements, etc) pretty much blow away any hopes of writing standard code. D'oh! The work-around? Not using .NET might be an option...so is letting go of the standards. Long term, let's hope MS can fix the problems.
