Unable to Disable ASP.NET Themes

Problem
Received the following error on web page that did not require themes:

Using themed css files requires a header control on the page. (e.g. <head runat="server" />).

Setting EnableTheming="false" did not work.

Solution
If themes are not required on page, disable themes with additional attributes:

<%@ Page EnableTheming="false" Theme="" StylesheetTheme="" %>

Note: It is undocumented that you must specify empty attributes Theme and StylesheetTheme.
