dynamic data grid placement question

Hi I have 2 data grids and several controls on a web page. The grids will
vary in size, just wondering if the lower grid could be covered by part of
the upper grid depending on its size or is there a way to dynamically shift
the lower grid so it appears just below the upper grid?
Thanks.
 
The easiest solution is to set your WebForm's PageLayout property to
FlowLayout.
This will cause any new controls placed on the form to flow one after the
other instead of bunching up on top of each other like they sometimes do if
you specify per-pixel (GridLayout) placement.
 
ok thanks, thought there might be something built in to handle this.

I tried setting up the form using the grid layout and then changing the page
properties to flow layout but seems like the grid is still covering controls.
Just wondering it is is difficult to set up the html table as I have 2 grids
and half a dozen controls, the grid size varies depending on what data gets
written into it.
thanks, Paul.
 
As I said, once you change to FlowLayout, any NEW controls placed on the
form will use flow layout.
Delete the existing controls and drag new ones onto the form in their place,
or switch to HTML view and delete the CSS positioning for all the existing
controls..
 
ok thanks for the information. Probably will switch to HTML and delete the
CSS positioning stuff because of the large number of contols and multiple
grids.
