I want to set up an ASP.NET custom control such that it has a custom name, specifically, with a hyphen within it, so it might look like this in markup:
<rp:do-something runat="server" id="doSomething1" />
I don't mind if this syntax requires setting up a tag mapping in web.config or something to that effect, but the tagMapping element doesn't quite match up for what I'd like to do.

I wouldn't think this is possible due to the restrictions on class namings. I don't believe you can refer to a control class in markup without refering to it by name
Is there a specific reason you need the hyphen?
-
Just use camelCase, its easier to read anyways.

John, you're right. I did some searching in Reflector and it looks like it doesn't get there:
Type ITagNameToTypeMapper.GetControlType(string tagName, IDictionary attribs) { string str; string str2 = this._nsRegisterEntry.Namespace; if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(str2)) { str = tagName; } else { str = str2 + "." + tagName; } if (this._assembly != null) { Type type = null; try { type = this._assembly.GetType(str, true, true); }Implemented in System.Web.UI.NamespaceTagNameToTypeMapper, System.Web.
@Jonathan: I have a specific business reason for wanting to do it this way. Oh well.
