Valign in gridview

[R7Dave]

Hello - I am trying to have my data in my gridview align to the top of the cell.

The following code is not workingin my grid_rowdatabound event

e.Row.Cells(0).Attributes.Add("style", "valign: top;")

and also

e.Row.Cells(2).Style.Add("valign", "top")

Both do not work

Does anyone know the correct code?

Thanks in advance
Dave

In CSS the attribute is vertical-align, so ....

e.Row.Cells(0).Attributes.Add("style", "vertical-align: top;")

That was just what I needed - Thank you very much

Hello again - is there a good online reference or a good book that lists what CSS attributes go with what object? I'm very interested in using CSS with gridviews - so I think that would be the same as a table, correct?

I have looked before for a good CSS reference but haven't found a real useful one - a lot of sites state that CSS is the way to go but then don't really give useful examples. I would like to find something that deals specifically with placement (absolute and relative positioning) and manipulating gridviews.

Thanks again
Dave

Yes, gridviews just render a table so that is the element you should target. Here's a good starting point:
