    <p>One way to do this is to set the cell's background to the image using CSS and write the price as plain text into the same cell (rendered output displayed): </p> <pre><code>&lt;td class="product" style="background: url(path-to-image.png) top left no-repeat"&gt; &lt;span class="price"&gt;$ 3.22&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/td&gt; </code></pre> <p>The only downside to this approach is that the cell would have to be explicitly sized to the same dimensions as the image, which you may not know.</p> <p>Another option is to use an <code>&lt;img&gt;</code> element inside the cell and still use a <code>&lt;span&gt;</code> for the plain text price (rendered output displayed):</p> <pre><code>&lt;td class="product"&gt; &lt;img src="path-to-image.png" alt="..."/&gt; &lt;span class="price"&gt;$ 3.22&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/td&gt; </code></pre> <p>Regardless of which method, you would use CSS to position and style the price within the cell:</p> <pre><code>td.product { position: relative } span.price { position: absolute; top : 40px; &lt; whatever works for you left: 40px; &lt; } </code></pre> <h3>A very simple GridView example with templating</h3> <p>You will need to set the GridView's <code>AutoGenerateColumns</code> property to false and handle the column creation and templating yourself. </p> <pre><code>&lt;asp:GridView ID="products" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" DataKeyNames="productId" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1"&gt; &lt;Columns&gt; &lt;asp:BoundField DataField="productId" HeaderText="Product ID" /&gt; &lt;asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Whatever ..."&gt; &lt;ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;img src='&lt;%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"productImageUrl") %&gt;' alt="..." /&gt; &lt;span class="price"&gt; &lt;%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"productPrice","{0:c}") %&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;/asp:TemplateField&gt; &lt;asp:BoundField DataField="productDesc" HeaderText="Description" /&gt; &lt;/Columns&gt; &lt;/asp:GridView&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COThanks, these values are all dynamically coming from a database and the table isn't built until the web page is accessed. The table contains things like the item image, what year it was made in, a link to view the information on the item, and so forth.

    2. COI understand, but for brevity's sake I was just outlining the concept. If you need an actual C# example that shows how to produce the html just let me know.

    3. COI understand the concept, but the table generated from the data grid control doesn't add classes, IDs, or the like. So I am unsure how I would implement the solution provided. I understand the concept.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
