Page divider

[samsmithnz]

I'm currently helping to design and proof of concept an application here at work, and we started to wonder how good asp.net is. We were thinking about adding a horizontal divider, midway through the page to seperate some data. How difficult is this to implement? (keeping in mind this is a global application and we'd really like to keep the rest of the project in HTML...)

 

Luckily all our potential users will be using the latest version of IE.

Do you mean a frame or even an IFrame?

I looked up IFrames, and I need a control that is more dyanmic. Think the seperater frame in Explorer, how you can drag it from side to side so that you can see more or less of the directory tree.

Remember that ASP.NET servers up pure HTML to the client, not anything ASP. All of the ASP is server side. The only non-ASP that is served up are intentionally injected JavaScripts and whatnot.

What I was trying to say is that I'd prefer to keep server side controls to a minimum on the page if it can be helped.

Would a frameset be what you want? It would give 2 or more dividers that you could move back and forth. I am messing with a page with it now. You add the frameset to your project and then associate the HTML pages to each frame area.

 

Drawback

The dividers allow you to move around but they are not perfect as the frames are anchored to the top left hand corner of the HTML page.
