I have a master page that contains an ASP.NET server side Menu control (System.Web.UI.WebControls.Menu)

I am using the CSSFriendly adapters from here

http://www.asp.net/CSSAdapters/Menu.aspx

and they do make the rendered HTML much cleaner however I am still getting inline styles output into the HEAD element in the HTML like this

<style type='text/css'>     .ctl00_SiteHeader1_TabBar1_Menu1_0 { background-color:white;visibility:hidden;display:none;position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px; }     .ctl00_SiteHeader1_TabBar1_Menu1_1 { text-decoration:none; }     .ctl00_SiteHeader1_TabBar1_Menu1_2 {  }     .ctl00_LeftColumnContent_LeftHandNavigator1_Menu1_0 { text-decoration:none; }  </style> </head>  <body>

I thik these styles are being generated by ASP.NET, I don’t think I need them as I am using the CSSAdapters so is there any way of stopping them from being generated?

  1. The short story is that it isn’t easily accomplished. That code is added to the header by the menu during the prerender phase.

    A possible workaround might be overriding the menu’s onprerender in a custom menu control and don’t call base. You could then replace the default menu control with your own using tagMappings.

    I’d suggest you stay clear of the menu control if you can.
