Can you plz explain more about your question? What exactly you want to do?

A grid view does not let you freeze columns or rows AFAIK. the only way to do that, is to render those rows and columns and then inside that, render a scrolling control to do your scrollable section. You'd need to create a data source that just generates your scrolling section and create the rest around it.

ok thank you.. but in my above example it works perfect for heading and other rows, i need a twik to freez first column like header.
Christian Graus 12-Dec-12 20:24pm    
IT's a bit of an unreadable mess, but the fact remains, for it to work you need to move where your div applies so that some rows do not use the div. Your data comes one row at a time, so I expect fiddling the CSS for a row is somewhat easier than doing it for a column.

thank you..can you please provide me example.
Christian Graus 12-Dec-12 20:54pm    
I'm sorry, I think your code is unreadable and unreasonably complex. I think you should do what I said to do, not pursue what you're doing.
