Best layout for Subscriptions Page
-
Hi, I am working on a ASP.Net page in which I need to display ALERTS available for a user, and the user can subscribe to what ALERTS he can get. I have a Subscriptions table in the database which has the ALERTS and CATEGORY. I need to show the categories and alerts for each category and show check boxes for the user to select which alerts he/she wants to subscribe to. I know I could create the controls on run time but would want to use a better technique. Thanks, Sandeep

What about using GridView with Checkedbox column?

then, you will need the control that can work like treeview + gridview... or you can use two gridviews for that.. one for category and one for subscription... you can show the list of categories with hyperlink in gridview at the top.. if the user clicks on a particular category, you can show the list of related information with checked boxes.. but it won't be look nice.. :( it is better if you have a control that can use like TV + GV..

Or I could have a bound column for category and template column with Check box for subscription and group the gridview right? This seems to be a very viable option right now. Could you guide me through it?
Check this for grouping row in Gridview.. http://blog.zygonia.net/PermaLink,guid,c093836d-8d97-4e5b-8a1c-8218742cb686.aspx\\ Check-out this for manipulating with chked boxes in GridView.. http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/SelChkboxesDataGridView.asp
