When the page finds amatch between the current user-agent information and user agents listed in thefile, it can read the corresponding browser capabilities, such as whether thebrowser supports scripting, styles, frames, and so on. Based on thesecapabilities, the controls on the page render Web controls using appropriatemarkup, such as XHTML, HTML 3.2, and so on. If ASP.NET is rendering HTML, itcan determine whether to render recent (cascading style sheet-compliant) orearlier (non-CSS-compliant) versions of HTML elements. For older browsers,ASP.NET renders formatting information using elements (for example, a font element) rather than using CSS styles.
