    <p>If this is an admin interface, and the client has agreed that users must have javascript enabled then I think using javascript to build widgets on the page is a better option than using the asp.net server controls. If however this is a public facing website I would argue that a pure html and css approach is much better, and then use javascript to progressively enhance the page! </p> <p>Now I dont ever advocate using asp.net server controls, because they spit out poor markup and they are overly complicated to use. Instead I have been using jQuery to do the grunt work and dom querying and traversing. I also dont advocate using jQuery UI because they are missing some very essential widgets, for example no datatable, no treeview etc. I know that there are lots of plugins for jQuery but they are not componentised and therefore each plugin needs to reinvent the wheel to achieve everything it needs. Once you have included all your plugin libraries and css you often end up with a very large page footprint. Also each plugin often has a different home page and documentation that may or may not be up to scratch.</p> <p>I think that the best UI library is YUI, and you can easily combine it with jQuery. Because each widget is made up from core components the overall weight of download is smaller. Also you have all the documentation in one place with 100's of working examples. Also it means working with the same set of javascript patterns across the board, so with each widget you learn more and more about the library. Hopefully jQuery UI will catch up, but personally I am looking forward to YUI 3 which for me might mean dropping jQuery altogether...</p>

    1. COWould you consider this to be a 'code maturity' issue? The size footprint _does seem considerable but damn those selectors and how nicely it dovetails with CSS work seems hard to argue against. But yours _is compelling.

    2. CORead jQuery in action (If you haven't already) It is a fantastic book, it is straight up one of the best tech books I've ever read and so well written. I stopped using asp.net classic over a year or so ago and have never looked back. There are just so many things wrong with classic. ViewState - horrible (just do it on the server with memcached or a DB cache). Gross html output - disgusting. Abstractions in your views - Overcomplicated Architecture Astronautism :P Gross Leaky Abstractions suck hard.

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.
