AspXer is a utility used to convert simple HTML forms to Aspx form
controls. Aspx is a file extension recognized by
Microsoft's DOT NET framework.
AspXer is beta software written in c sharp for Microsoft ASP.NET. It takes
a simple HTML file (from pasted text or file upload) which contains HTML form
controls and converts them to Aspx format. ApsXer is especially useful if you
have many form controls that need to be converted.
Sample: the following HTML:
<input type="text" id="field1">
Becomes this in Aspx:
<asp:TextBox id="field1" runat= "server"></asp:TextBox>
In addtion to converting html to aspx, the program will also let you run an XML
validator against your file or the converted aspx.

Options
Options for AspXer include the ability to control which types of HTML form
controls to convert, and if they should have the attribute runat=server or
not. Even if you have existing HTML that has the runat=server attribute,
AspXer can remove it when you uncheck the appropriate box in the
program. Typically, you can run HTML controls at the server simply by
having the runat attribute set to server. If you want an HTML control to
run at the server but not be transformed into an Aspx control, simply uncheck
the appropriate box, and AspXer will insert the runat attribute into your HTML
for you.
At this time, AspXer only supports these options on a global basis. That is, you can't individually select which HTML objects to convert or change.
