BaseDataList

Synopsis

This abstract class provides basic functionality for the DataList and DataGrid web controls. These controls include data binding (through the DataBind() method, properties like DataSource), and simple formatting through various table-specific properties, including CellPadding (the space between content in a cell and the cell borders), CellSpacing (the space between cells), and HorizontalAlign (the position of the table relative to the page or adjacent content).
