title: How to best integrate HTML/design with C# code in ASP.Net or ASP.Net MVC?
body: <p>We're working on a new ASP.Net site.  The last major site we did was in classic ASP--the procedure we used there was to have the HTML completed first, then "bring it to life" with the ASP code.</p>
  
  <p>In the ASP.Net world, how does this work?  I.e. how do the designers do their work if much of the mark-up is actually being generated by the server controls?</p>
  
  <p>We are also looking at ASP.Net MVC as a potential lightweight alternative.</p>
  
  <p>Would be very interested to know what was worked best for people in both scenarios in terms of working with the designers and integrating their work with the code.</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE:  I refined what I was asking <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2556785/is-it-ok-to-create-the-html-first-for-an-asp-net-or-asp-net-mvc-site">here</a>, not exactly the same question but similar enough so this one could probably be merged with it.  Any advice on how to merge them would be appreciated.   </p>
