title: Creating Custom Controls with .ascx files
body: <p>I am looking creating some custom controls that need to be compiled as a stand alone dll rather than with the primary application.  Unfortunately so far this has meant manually creating the controls without the use of the designer since afaik you can't compile a User Control as a stand alone component.  As doing things this way makes the controls rather difficult for the designers to style without putting in a lot of effort on the developers part, I am wondering if there is in fact a viable way to compile a .ascx style control into a stand alone binary? </p>
