Were you previously using the default POSITIONING="GridLayout" for pages in VS.NET 2003? From what I gather, forms in VS.NET 2005 are using the more modern XHTML based DOCTYPE for pages, they may be defaulting to FLOWLAYOUT as well for the MS_POSITIONING attribute. If you prefer the GridLayout, you could just change the default back. Just my guess at what the problem could be.
Here is the answer for gridlayout:
Select Options from the vs 2005 Tools menu.
Select HTML Designer, then CSS Postitioning.
You’ll see a checkbox for postiting and a drop down that will allow you to set absolute positioning.
This problem was a pain in the butt for me 2!
It can now be found under Layout, Postion, Auto-position options.
Check the check box and select Absolutely positioned option from the drop down list.
Now, if anyone could tell me how to get my grid back?!
Hi!
Thanks for asking! I'm a member of the ASP.NET team, and was just popping over here to see what was going on. The best place to ask ASP.NET questions is over on the ASP.NET forums at
http://www.asp.net/welcome.aspx?tabindex=1&tabid=39The short answer to your question is that there isn't a way to do that any more. Sorry.
HTH,
