asp:templatefield question (please help)

[Mat]

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Column 1">
<ItemStyle />
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="LabelEnterprise" Text='Label1' runat="server" />
<br/>
<asp:Label ID="LabelHostedByWebsite" Text='Label2' runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>


as you could see there is a <br/> tag between the 2 labels so id like to
change row for the next label to show on the next line.

how come it does not work. the labels are next to each other.

is there a way to show the label2 on the next line?

Not sure how should a <br /> behave inside template. The standard way is to
use a table:

<ItemTemplate>
<table><tr><td>
<asp:Label ID="LabelEnterprise" Text='Label1' runat="server" />
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
<asp:Label ID="LabelHostedByWebsite" Text='Label2' runat="server" />
</td></tr></table>
</ItemTemplate>
