asp.net code validation

for

From: Mark Bryant

When using asp.net, code is returned to the browser that appears invalid
when checking the page with a HTML validator (W3C, WDG). Specifically, the
"_" and trailing "/" characters that are generated by the IsPostBack
function are showing up during validation. This is the sample page I am
referring to: http://www.gcflearnfree.org/development/ed/aspnet/test1.aspx

Has anyone found a way (other than abandoning the use of .Net) to resolve
this issue? Is there a special page declaration needed?

Thanks,
