Want to view code in GridView.Render so I can override it

Hi all,
I hope this doesn't sound like a lame question, but I want to override
Gridview.Render so I can strip out ALL styling elements and use CSS
for my styling. I am pretty sure I can figure it out, if I could just
get at the code that is currently called by GridView.Render . Can
anyone help me out?

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,
the thing you are looking for is Adapter. Adapter framework allows to
override how the web controls are rendered. I recommend you to start from
already created Adapter, because you will very quickly discover all important
features. Good implementation are CssFriendlyAdap ter -

Use Lutz Roeder's Reflector product to decompile the Render method so you can
see what it does.

Hi All, I have a GridView inside the EditItemTemplate of a FormView. Both FormView and GridView are data bound using an ObjectDataSource. When the FormView's ObjectDataSource object has a SelectParameters with a SessionParameter in the parameters collection and the object stored in the Session is a reference type, the DataGrid fails to enter Line Editing mode. Is this a bug? Is there a workaround for this problem?

hi, with a derived DataGrid control, i can override the CreateColumnSet method and scan into the DataGridColumns and set the DataFormatString, e.g. leave out the time part of a DateTime value. this works great for a DataGrid control. however i'm upgrading this control to inherit from GridView. there seems to be a limitation of the gridview "Method not supported" when you try and set a DataFormatString on an AutoGeneratedField.

I got into trouble with this problem. The data I am presenting in a GridView control has a column called "Website". That data comes from a stored procedure in SQL Server 2000. Most of them have valid http urls. But some of them say "None" or "Not available". In the GridView, I would like create a hyperlink for those valid http urls only, and simply plain-output those which say "None" or "Not available".
