Getting HTML from Control.Render

[Dan Morris]

I can get a Control to Render its HTML output to an HtmlTextWriter, but I am unable to get the HtemlTextWriter to give me the HTML string that it contains. Nor can I figure out from the documentation how to access the output stream object the writer references so that I can get the HTML from the original control. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Here's one way:

HtmlTextWriter writer = new HtmlTextWriter(new StringWriter());
control.RenderControl(writer);

string html = writer.InnerWriter.ToString();
