Re: Formatting ASP.NET code

I actually mean <title><asp:literal ... format like you described.

The difference is that the above code is not off course sent to the end 
user (browser), because the <asp: tags are processed on server side.

But, I'm now talking of integrating HTML Tidy with VS.NET during 
development, or integrating Tidy with other developement 
environments/languages that use proprietary/custom tags in code that are 
processed on the server side.

This is why we would need to have some sort of wildcard matching 
new-script-tags option or similar.
