HtmlTextWriter to String - Am I overlooking something?

Question

Perhaps I\'m going about this all wrong (and please tell me if I am), but I\'m hitting my head against a wall with something that seems like a really simple concept.

Answer 1

You can derive from HttpTextWriter and override OnTagRender, OnAttributeRender and OnStyleRender methods and modify the tags as they are rendered. The MSDN docs for OnTagRender show a sample where the tag is modified during rendering:
