Ok, here's the deal: I already know the objects that .Net comes with, I've used them before, that's why I'm posting this thread. The problem with those is that they are way too big and have too much properties I won't even use, besides the using of those controls creates an ugly javascript code that won't let me validate my pages.

I'm talking about serious server-client programming, very optimized and with a good performance, that's why I wanted to know if it is possible to send objects to the client and then back to the server in .Net. For example I'm using a server page (i.e. that with a .cs extension) to call various client pages (i.e. those with a .aspx extension) according to the case, or in other cases just the opposite various client pages call the same server page, that's why using a .Net control won't help me.

Just a final comment: I (along with half the developers in the world) refuse to use tables on my page, I only use them when it's extremely necessary, taht means almost never.

Well, hope someone has the answer to my original question, thanks......
