Three New Controls The Web.UI suite is being expanded yet again. The following controls are being added with v2008.2: Input for ASP.NET Slider for ASP.NET ColorPicker for ASP.NET Major Grid Overhaul Since its initial release, ComponentArt Grid has been perceived as one of the most valuable controls within the Web.UI suite.
