Uninstalling CSS Friendly Adapters?

Question

User224181609 posted

 I installed the adapters using the following steps:

1. Opened my site in VWD 2008, added the cssfriendly.dll to the bin folder, added CSSFriendlyAdapters.browser file to the App_Browsers folder

2. Right clicked on the website name / Add Reference and browsed to and selected the .dll file

Then when I previewed my website pages, none of the contols have the formatting I originally put to them. The code for the controls has not changed, but they dont render the way they did before I added the adapters.

I dont want to re-do all the controls. I expected the controls to render the way they were until I went to modify them.

Have I done something wrong? Is there some way to disable the adapters?

Can I uninstall the adapters? Would removing the .browser and .dll files accomplish that?

 Unless specified otherwise, the control adapters will be used.

You have two options:

1. Disable the adapter for a specific type of control in the browser file. Just comment out the one you don't want, for example, disable adapter for GridView type:

<!--<adapter controlType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView"
               adapterType="CSSFriendly.GridViewAdapter" />-->

2. Your other option is to disable it for one specific control by using AdapterEnabled="false".
