I'm creating a page with multiple datagrids and would like to display some of them side by side. I know I can create a table and put the block of code for each individual datagrid in its own table cell--thus putting them side by side. However, this results in some nasty nested tables in the final code sent to the browser since each datagrid automatically creates its own table. Is there a better way to do this?There is really nothing wrong with nested tables. Every high traffic site uses them.<BR><BR>If you are really worried about having nested tables. I would try to set up the two datagrids in "Design" mode in VS.net using gridlayout. The gridlayout (as opposed to the flowlayout) uses CSS absolute positioning instead of trying to place elements on the page relative to each other.<BR><BR>I was always taught that nested tables reduce performance. I try to avoid using CSS for positioning because I've never had much luck with it being Netscape compatible.<BR><BR>I'll just stick with nested tables, at least then I know that it will display the way I want across browsers.
