Product Features
smNetServerControls is an asp.net web server controls add-on suite consisting of Tag Editors, Tag Insight, Property Inspectors and New Document Wizards for HomeSite® and ColdFusion Studio®.
Tag Editors
This package includes 32 different Tag Editors. These Tag Editors are available as buttons from 2 Toolbars. The Toolbars are conveniently organized as one Toolbar for Form-based tags and the other for Layout-based tags.
Tag Editors are easy to use because each of the editable properties and methods are categorized in tabbed pages according to the class they are inherited from. For example properties inherited by a control from the System.Web.UI.WebControls class will be found on the WebControls tabbed page. This consistency among the Tag Editors makes finding properties easy.
By right clicking on an asp.net server control tag in the Editor window and choosing "Edit Tag" from the pop-up menu, you will invoke that tag's Editor. Invoking Tag Editors this way will pre-populate the Tag Editor's property fields with all of the values you assigned in your code.
All properties in a tag editor which have enumerated values such as True|False or Left|Center|Right will be displayed as a pull-down so you don't need to type or even remember the valid values for any given property. The Font-Names property displays as a pull-down populated with all of the font names currently installed on the machine. All of the properties expecting color values display as a pull-down with color choices and even a popup dialog which let's you chose a custom color. Each of these enumerated values are pre-selected with their default values. Each Tag Editor is smart enough to recognize when a default value has been selected for an enumerated value and omitted from final output for efficient code.
Included with each tag is a Tag Help document, which gives you quick reference at a glance each of the tag's attributes and their valid values.

Tag Insight
If you are a developer who takes advantage of Tag Insight you will be happy to know that it has been implemented for each of the 32 asp.net server control tags listed above. In addition, support for 7 more tags have been included for the following: <HeaderStyle>, <ItemStyle>, <EditItemStyle>, <AlternatingItemStyle>, <SelectedItemStyle>, <FooterStyle> and <PagerStyle>.
Tag Inspector
An Asp.Net server control Tag Outline is included so you can navigate the document's structure. The outline also includes all of the HTML4 tags so you can see the entire document not just the asp.net tags.
The Property Definitions window shows all of the attributes available for a tag currently selected in the Editor window. The attribute list can be sorted alphabetically or by the class-name the attribute was inherited from.
