Which is used more: GridLayout or PageLayout

[Brad]

I'm starting a major project and want to get a feel for
what is more "industry standard" for asp.net page design.

I would greatly appreciate any feedback regarding what
people use as their default layout mode for page design.

Thank you.

I believe that grid layout is the default isn't it? If so I'm betting that
then :}

FYI... Even if I have GridLayout in essence I still use FlowLayout since I
never EVER set the coordinates for anything on my page.

no it doesn't.... Not unless the coordinates are included in the html to
start, which in my case they aren't....
When you drop a control onto the Design View of a webform it will put the
positions, but I remove them. Beyond that I manully create my aspx from the
HTML view, not the Deisgn View.
I avoid the design view unless absolutely necessary since it tends to screw
things up in my code-behinds.

I don't know which is used more, but I always switch to FlowLayout -
absolute positioning in web pages is generally considered bad practice.

If you need it, then use GridLayout, otherwise stick to FlowLayout so
people can resize their browser and have things reposition nicely. If
you need to have some control over the layout, HTML tables are what is
generally used.
