Real World implementations of custom controls for ASP.NET.
Real World Controls Home PageASP.NET Real World Controls is designed to provide working examples of custom controls which developers commonly need to implement in real world development. ASP.NET provides a great foundation of controls, but often we need to go a little bit futher in our development projects. ASP.NET Real World Controls attempt to capture those common scenarios and create reusable controls out of them.
This project was originally available on GotDotNet, but we've moved to CodePlex. In addition to moving to CodePlex, we've also expanded the scope of the project. While we originally focused on GridView only, now we'll expand to other ASP.NET controls as well.
Here is some documentation.

It should give you a good understanding of what is going on though.
