ASP.net treeview. How to change rendering from table to list

Question

I have a Treeview control which is currently outputting the results in an HTML table element, Ideally I would like to get this to output as an unordered List.

Something like <asp:TreeView RenderAsList="True"> would be great if possible. Of course if it were that easy I wouldn't be here!

Thanks in advance

I forgot to mention that I have no access to the code behind, I can only affect the ASPX — Username_null

You could probably use javascipt to manipulate the DOM (jQuery is great for this) to turn your <table> into a <ul>. Sounds like it might be kind of a brittle solution though. — Josh Darnell

If you're wanting to make this an unordered list, I don't think you'll be able to do that using the normal Treeview control, what you could do is use a Repeater control that will let you build your list in html, and then use some jquery to format that list as a treeview.

if you "must" have the full asp:Treeview functionality there is an ancient library that hasn't been updated since 2006 that lets you render output of asp.net controls in a more css/html friendly fashion.

Sadly it is a case of having to have the full Treeview. Thanks for the link it gives me something to investigate.
