I'm doing an array of images arrayed on a page left to right, top to bottom.  There can be multiple pages, and there are 2 different sort options.  I'd like to do this in GridView rather than DataList.  Are there any simple / elegant ways of coding this in GridView or am I better off using DataList?

 Thanks

 Dave

I vote Repeater.

DataGrid is not intended to display several columns of the same information.  It's best suited for traditional tabular data: column names across the top and values beneath.

Since you are displaying only one type of information (photos) in paginated format, I would suggest getting your photos into a single table and using asp:repeater to display the images and any metadata.

That's just my opinion.
