Hi there,

I have a pretty complex page, inside a MasterPage which basically consists of 3 Update Panels.

Inside the first Update Panel there is a Table which positions a few dropdowns and TextBoxes.

The other two Update Panels show Master - Detail GridViews which are dynamically loaded. Content is based on selection of first UpdatePanel.

My problem is, that whenever I show my Master Detail GridViews the Table inside the first UpdatePanel is growing extremly in size (width only). Though this happens only in IE, it still bothers me, because my page design is totally messed up.

I think this is caused by one or both of the GridViews (both widths are 100% too). Maybe they are bigger in one state of the pagecycle, but get smalled, when some columns get invisible, but whole width stays.... I can't explain this behaviour, but hope someone could explain to me...

 Hi,

Try to set the width by setting

style = "width:auto"

no, it does not work, the Table now is smaller than the page... but I dont want that... by the way, the gridviews are still getting too big.

Damn it, I was working on this for days, just now figured it was a problem with the MasterPage Setup.
