hi all,
I'm looking to add style attributes to an <asp:boundcolumn /> tag.

so something like:
<asp:BoundColumn style="border-right:1px solid #336699;" HeaderText="Author" DataField="aulname"/>

will render
<td style="border-right:1px solid #336699;">Frost</td>

but i get the error:
Type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.BoundColumn' does not have a property named 'style'

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
dave

Dave,

I think you want to use <asp:BoundColumn ItemStyle="border-right:1px solid #336699;" HeaderText="Author" DataField="aulname"/>. Didn't test it though =)

hth,
Alex

Thanks!
However, I've already tried that and got the following error:

Parser Error Message: 'ItemStyle' property is readonly and cannot be set

there has to be someway of doing this, i mean, what if I wanted to add some type of Javascript to the <TD> tag? Or an Expando property?
I know you can di with through code using the Attributes property and generic HTML controls, but here I'm trying to use <asp:boundcolumn />.

thanks,
dave

You can also create a stylesheet and use:
<style rel=Styleshhet>
.myStyle { border-right:1px solid #336699; }
</style>
.....
<asp:BoundColumn runat="server" CssClass="myStyle" />

Thanks!

But again, I was only using this particular case as an example. How can you
add expando properties, or custom javascript code, to <asp:_controls_ /> ?
Or can't you? Say for instance I wanted to add the Title="this is my short
little description that will pop up" attribute to <asp:boundcolumn /> ?

Any ideas? Or am i just rambling....

Thanks,
dave

Dave,

Never tried that so far, but I reckon it should be possible to create a
control that inherits from (e.g.) boundcolumn and adds some more
attributes. The downfall is, I guess, it won't interoperate with other
web controls in a proper manner. Just like the boundcolumn is
automatically assumed to be a column definition of a DataGrid. If you
created something like <myextension:boundcolumn> I don't think the
compiler will guess you intensions.

Does it make sense?
