Stab in the dark but maybe this is a templating question, Im working with some .NEt programming atm, i found this quite insane, all u need to do is put a datagrid tag placement with an id of the variable of the dataset and it generates the grid for u <asp:datagrid id="dg" runat="server" /> Id love to see this kind of functionality for dg :)

(1) Please put feature requests directly into the bug tracker. (2) Not exactly this, but a very convenient way to fill a custom container is provided with the new rendering interface. For the HTMLTable renderer this means that you pass an existing HTML_Table instance to the SDG method fill() which is then "filled" with the datagrid. The Smarty renderer will behave with fill() in a similar way -- at least, I think so. As Olivier stated, he has found a problem with the new rendering concept and the Smarty renderer. But I'm sure, that he (or we) will find a solution for this, so that all renderers have this common fill() functionality.

Maybe it could be incorporated in the smarty and flexy renderer (waiting for the stable code next week to rework that).

Olivier told you via the bug tracker that this won't happen next week. Please be patient. ;-) You will be contacted by us when the Smarty is ready enough to a be "template" (*g*) for the Flexy renderer. Thanks for your interest in SDG and regards, Mark
