Grid for a Project Management Application

Apr 16, 2012 07:20 AM|LINK

Hi,

I am looking for the ideal and perfect way to create a grid where users could add the details. I have created one in my own way, I don't know whether that's the perfect way. Kindly check http://test.physique-tv.com/customers/estimate.aspx

I have created a Datalist and added textboxes in it and applied CSS.

<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" Height="200px" ScrollBars="Auto">
            <asp:DataList ID="DataList1" runat="server" RepeatLayout="Flow">
                <ItemTemplate>
                  
        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" CssClass="GridinputItem"></asp:TextBox>
         <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server" CssClass="GridinputItem"></asp:TextBox>
          <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox3" runat="server" CssClass="GridinputItem"></asp:TextBox>
           <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox4" runat="server" CssClass="GridinputItem"></asp:TextBox>
            <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox5" runat="server" CssClass="GridinputItem"></asp:TextBox>
                   
                </ItemTemplate>
            </asp:DataList>
 </asp:Panel>

On form load I have written the following code

 Dim dt As New DataTable
        dt.Columns.Add("a1", GetType(String))
        dt.Columns.Add("a2", GetType(String))
        dt.Columns.Add("a3", GetType(String))
        dt.Columns.Add("a4", GetType(String))
        dt.Columns.Add("a5", GetType(String))
        Dim dr As DataRow
        For i = 0 To 25
            dr = dt.NewRow
            dt.Rows.Add(dr)

        Next

        DataList1.DataSource = dt
        DataList1.DataBind()

Once rendered the output looks like http://test.physique-tv.com/customers/estimate.aspx

Let me know is this the exact way to create the grid :-)

I would go for FormView for data input....and then normal gridview for displaying and editing details...I exactly dont know the requirements so I may not be able to comment on present implementation...

Thanks,
