What’s New in 2008 Volume 3

The Ultimate UI for ASP.NET 2008 Volume 3 release includes the long-awaited WebDataGrid™ control built on the Ultimate UI for ASP.NET AJAX framework.

New WebDataGrid Control

The WebDataGrid™ control is a new addition to the expanding list of Ultimate UI for ASP.NET AJAX controls. WebDataGrid’s new design makes it an efficient and scalable grid control, with native AJAX capabilities.

All the functionalities for a flexible, feature-rich grid control are present in WebDataGrid.

Like all Ultimate UI for ASP.NET AJAX controls, WebDataGrid seamlessly integrates into the Infragistics® Application Styling framework. With CSS based properties, you can manually customize the WebDataGrid control by leveraging your existing style sheets.

A few of the WebDataGrid features include:

  • High-Performance - Lightweight markup and optimized code improve performance.

  • Standards Conformance - CSS 2 and XHTML 1.0 compliance.

  • Numerous Supported Data Sources - Support for a large range of bindable data sources including standard Microsoft data source controls and objects implementing IEnumerable.

  • Paging - Break up your data into smaller, viewable pages of data.

  • Filtering - Customizable filter conditions and values allow for a more tailored filtering experience according to your needs and specifications.

  • Templates - Most of the elements in WebDataGrid can be templated allowing for maximum flexibility and customization.

  • Native AJAX Support - Because the Ultimate UI for ASP.NET AJAX controls are built on top of the Microsoft® ASP.NET AJAX Extensions, most of WebDataGrid’s functionalities are executed using AJAX, eliminating the hindrance of full page postbacks.
