Hi, I am having a bit of trouble with my gridview table and the width of the
columns.
The gridview is made of Templates that contain LinkButton controls. The
LinkButtons will display a string based on their "text" property.
I have set a width for the Linkbutton control, and I am also using CSS to
set style word-wrap:break-word so that if there is a long string it will
break the word and wrap it. This works fine, however the column-width is
resized so that it fits the original long string rather than resizing it to
fit the wrapped text width.
I am wondering if there is a way to have fixed-width columns so regardless
of how long the string is the column does not resize? If not, is there a
way to remedy this?
If what I wrote is vague please let me know I will try to get a screenshot.
Here is some code to illustrate what I have:
<asp:TemplateFi eld HeaderText="Alg orithm" SortExpression= "Algorithm"
ItemStyle-CssClass="linkB utton">
<EditItemTempla te>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtAlgEdit " runat="server" Height="60px" MaxLength="255"
TextMode="Multi line" Text="AVeryVery VeryVeryLongWor d" />
</EditItemTemplat e>
<ItemTemplate >
<asp:LinkButt on ID="lblAlgorith m" runat="server" width="80px" Height="80px"
ForeColor="Blac k" Font-Underline="fals e" Text="AVeryVery VeryVeryLongWor d"/>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateFie ld>
Thank you for any help.
