One of the biggest complaint I've heard about the ASP.NET Datagrid is that it doesn't render accessible HTML, for instance, having TH elements for the header items. This is especially bothersome to those are required by governments or others to have all of their HTML code meet accessibility standards. So imagine my delight when reading this KB article today: FIX: DataGrid Made Compliant with Section 508 of the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Guidelines Now, you still have to install a HotFix, and the behavior is turned off by default, but this is very good news for the Datagrid community. (Is there such a thing? Well, I guess somebody reads my blog)
Passed onto me by David Gardiner, who attended my Datagrid talk at Tech Ed Australia. Thanks David!
Update: Apparently SharpReader didn't like me having TH (with the brackets) tags in my post body, once I removed the brackets, formatting seemed to go back to normal.
