Do you know any open-source asp.net web control to render code?

Question

I'm looking for an asp.net control capable of formatting code written in certain programming languages (as in StackOverflow or the "Language" functionality in Notepad++), with automatic syntax highlighting/indentation depending on the language.

Do you know of any such control?

Answer 1

I don't know any asp.net control that does that, but you could use a JavaScript syntax highlighter, like this one : http://code.google.com/p/syntaxhighlighter/.

The main advantage is that it moves the rendering cost to the client side, which can be a huge gain for a highly-frequented website with a lot of code (eg programming forum/website like SO.. wait... they do that too, right ?).
