Whidbey Question

Those of you lucky devils that have it, I've been curious about something. Has MS redesigned the web controls, and basic rendering to output W3C compliant or are we all going to need to rollover our filters? Also is it outputing div tags now instead of table tags...which are degraded?

I'm pretty sure ASP.NET 2.0 outputs XHTML. Tables aren't "degraded".

Correct, they are not officialy degraded...sorry for the wrong choice of words; I've degraded them in my mind though. Please take a look at the following:

Scroll down to the paragraph with the heading

Are you saying that HTML tables are dead?

 

 

Also, I have links to other sites that point on some performance issues with tables vs. div's, and basically a lot of CSS advantages stuff vs the way 'we' traditionally do things.
