Writes a series of HTML 3.2–specific characters and text to the output stream for an ASP.NET server control. The System.Web.UI.Html32TextWriter class provides formatting capabilities that ASP.NET server controls use when rendering HTML 3.2 content to clients.

The System.Web.UI.Html32TextWriter class is an alternative to the System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter class. It converts HTML 4.0 style attributes into the equivalent HTML 3.2 tags and attributes. It standardizes the propagation of attributes, such as colors and fonts, using HTML tables. ASP.NET automatically uses this class for HTML 3.2 and earlier browsers by checking the System.Web.Configuration.HttpCapabilitiesBase.TagWriter property of the System.Web.HttpBrowserCapabilities class. Unless you create a custom page or control adapter that targets devices that use HTML 3.2 markup, you do not need to create an instance of the System.Web.UI.Html32TextWriter class explicitly.
