GridView header wrap

[Mark Rae]

Hi,

Is there a bug in the GridView control specifically related to wrapping of
header text...?

E.g. the following tag
<asp:GridView HeaderStyle-Wrap="false" ID=gvListUsers runat=server ... etc
.... >

does not prevent the header text from wrapping.

Even if I add the following:
<HeaderStyle Wrap="false" />

the header text still wraps...

Is this a known issue? It certainly didn't / doesn't happen with the old
<aspataGrid control.

Any assistance gratefully received.

Mark

Anyone got any thoughts about this - it's driving me crazy!

Finally figured it out, with the help of this webpage:

Basically, if a GridView is contained within a panel (or anything which
renders as a DIV), any CSS applied to the containing object overrides the
GridView's formatting settings...
