I’m looking for an asp.net control capable of formatting code written in certain programming languages (as in StackOverflow or the ‘Language’ functionality in Notepad++), with automatic syntax highlighting/indentation depending on the language.
Do you know of any such control?
I don’t know any asp.net control that does that, but you could use a JavaScript syntax highlighter, like this one : http://code.google.com/p/syntaxhighlighter/.
The main advantage is that it moves the rendering cost to the client side, which can be a huge gain for a highly-frequented website with a lot of code (eg programming forum/website like SO.. wait… they do that too, right ?).
