ASP.net can create HTML tables with Datagrid and Table controls. Is there an
ASP.net control that allows me to build an HTML table with a THEAD row?

Can I access the <THEAD> in the repeater and add a style?

Hi Arne,

Since the Repeater control is the only Web control that allows you to split
markup tags across the templates. you can write something like this to get a
THEAD and TBODY section:

<asp:Repeater id=Repeater1 runat="server">
    <HeaderTemplate>
        <table border=1 id="table1">
        <THEAD >
        <tr>
           <th><b>Company</b></td>
           <th><b>Symbol</b></td>
        </tr>
        </THEAD>
        </TBODY>
    </HeaderTemplate>

    <ItemTemplate>
        <tr>
        <td> <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name") %> </td>
        <td> <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Ticker") %> </td>
        </tr>
    </ItemTemplate>

    <FooterTemplate>
        </TBODY>
        </table>
    </FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

You can then style them like this:

<style>
#table1 thead td{
/*style definition for the cell within a thead*/
}
#table1 tbody td{
/*style definition for the cell within a tbody*/
}
</style>

Correction:

The THEAD section should look like that instead:
        <THEAD >
        <tr>
           <th>Company</th>
           <th>Symbol</th>
        </tr>
        </THEAD>
and the equivalent style should be like this:
<style>
#table1 thead th{
/*style definition for the cell within a thead*/
}
#table1 tbody td{
/*style definition for the cell within a tbody*/
}
</style>
