Match width of column heading in row with GridView BoundFields in

J

JB

Hello

In my ASP.NET application on the web page, I have a table that contains 2
rows. One rows is for the header and the other row is for the GridView
<asp:BoundFields> result set of data.

The second row contains the GridView <asp:BoundFields>.
I set the width for each BoundFields in the GridView by setting the
<ItemStyle Width="SomeNumberpx" /> property. And it works!

It is the first row however that contains the column headings which I am
having 2 problems with. As you know when you have any kind of table the data
gets displayed beneath its corresponding column heading. So my questions are:

-How can I set the width of the column headings in the first row to the same
size as the widths of the <asp:Boundfields> in the GridView beneath it on the
second row?

-How do I align the width of the column headings in the first row above the
<asp:Boundfields> in the GridView in the second row?

Below is the table;

<table id="tblwhol" width="1000px" cellspacing="0";>
<tr>
<td>Prob #</td><td> Type</td><td >p1</td>
<td>p2 </td><td>Problem</td>
<td>Comments</td><td>Caller1 Time</td><td>Caller2 Time</td>
<td>Caller3 Time</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<asp:panel ID="sitecont" runat="server" height="175px"
Width="1000px" ScrollBars="Vertical" >
<asp:GridView ID="siteGrid" BorderStyle="Solid"

runat="server">

Your table has wrong layout. You have defined 4 cells in the first row
and only 1 in the second row. Either try to close <table> tag before
the Panel control:

<table id="tblwhol" width="1000px" cellspacing="0";>
<tr>
<td>Prob #</td><td> Type</td><td >p1</td>
<td>p2 </td><td>Problem</td>
<td>Comments</td><td>Caller1 Time</td><td>Caller2 Time</td>
<td>Caller3 Time</td>
</tr>
</table>
<asp:panel.....

or define colspan attribute for the second row's cell

<tr>
<td colspan="4">
<asp:panel...

Hope this helps

Hello Alexey

There are 9 cells in the first row, you are only looking at the first
<td> on the row, there are more than one <td> on the rows following the first
<td> that you see. Only the last row has one <td>. So the question remains
how to set the widths and line them up.

oh, sorry, there are 9.

Did you try <td colspan="9"> ?
