WebGrid for ASP.NET

WebGrid™ is a full featured, search engine-friendly, hierarchical AJAX grid control for ASP.NET 2.0 (and up) that allows binding and professional display of your data in whatever style or manner best fits your needs. AJAX functionality built into the WebGrid provides benefits such as allowing the data grid to automatically and quietly send AJAX requests (on client browsers that support this technology) so that behind the scenes it can repaint the UI and provide a rich and responsive user experience. The many capabilities of the WebGrid make it ideal for users that need to work interactively with data exposed by your Web application. These features include ASP.NET templates for rows and columns, sorting, filtering, group-by, scrolling columns while one or more other columns are fixed in place, and many other features.

Rich Data Entry

When you combine the presentation of WebGrid with the embeddable editors in our set of WebEditors™ you can produce a rich data entry application in no time. You can embed the masked editor, numeric editor, date time editor, date dropdown, and custom button into any grid column. The WebCombo™ allows editing grid column values through powerful multi-column selection lists, with type-ahead, and many features like fade-in effects, shadows, and alpha blending where supported by the browser.

Features at a Glance

No-Touch AJAX Control - With zero code, enable AJAX for the grid control to supercharge your users' scrolling, sorting, paging and hierarchical navigation.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) - By detecting over twenty different crawlers and then generating search engine-friendly HTML output, the WebGrid increases your data's visibility for better search engine rankings.

High Performance - We have optimized our rendering to include as little HTML as possible and leverage industry-standards like CSS to reduce inline styles, plus, you don't need to enable ViewState to execute all of the functionality inherent in our ASP.NET grid control.

Spreadsheet Support - Excel copy and paste along with exporting to (or reading from) Excel makes transferring data a breeze. Column pinning, stationary headers, and row filtering make viewing deep flat and hierarchical data a pleasurable experience.

Client Side Object Model (CSOM) - Manipulate virtually any WebGrid object on the client in JavaScript using the CSOM in conjunction with the grid being an AJAX control capable of creating the richest possible client side experience.

Custom Navigation - Using WebNavBar™, our custom hierarchical data grid navigation control for ASP.NET, you can give your users additional navigation choices not available in standard paging scenarios.

Application Styling - We provide an entire library of style sets with which you can adorn your ASP.NET Web site with a professional look or common functional style (Office 2007, Mac and others). Application Styling can apply coordinated color schemes, creative border solutions, decorative imagery and fonts with as little as one setting, or you can create and share your own with our very intuitive NetAdvantage AppStylist® tool for ASP.NET.
Browser Support - Internet Explorer 6.0 and above, and FireFox 1.0 and above (both Windows and Mac).
Section 508 Compliance - Our ASP.NET grid control is in full compliance with Workforce Investment Act of 1998 Sub-section 508 regarding information access for people with disabilities.
