My designer created a stylesheet that makes heavy uses of id’s. Example:

<div id='globalheader'> <ul id='globalnav'>....

css:

#globalheader { width: 715px; height: 100px; margin: 18px auto; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 20; z-index: 9998; } #globalheader #globalnav { margin: 0; padding: 0; } #globalheader #globalnav li { display: inline; }

This doesn’t display correctly anymore as soon I change one of the div elements to ‘runat=server’ because this will cause the ClientID to change. How can I solve this?

  1. This is a problem that I don’t think is solvable without post generation workarounds, some of them being…

    • Add class attributes to the html elements and change the style declarations to .globalheader
    • Leave the html elements as they are and do a find and replace in the stylesheet (the new id names should have a consistent prefix e.g. #ctl00_globalheader)
