Positioning a button

[groston]

On a web form, I have a datagrid and the necessary controls to add items to the underlying table. What I would like to do is have a 'Done' button positioned just beneath the table, that when pushed, commits the changes to the database.

Now, this may seem silly, but the part I cannot figure out is how to reposition the button!

Here's what I am trying

<do data stuff>
dg.DataSource = myDataTable
dg.DataBind

cmdDone.Style(&quot;TOP&quot = (Val(dg.Style(&quot;TOP&quot) + CInt(dg.Height.Value) + 10).ToString + &quot;px&quot;

But the button never moves :-(

What am I missing?

Thanks.

One other note: Using the debugger, the part that seems to be non-functional is the dg.Height.Value - this always returns 0.

The easiest way to do this might be to use a two row, one column table. Put the datagrid in the first row's cell, and the button in the second rows cell. That way, no matter how big the datagrid grows, the second row (and hte button) will always be below it.

jfrost10,

Took a minute to get this working properly, but your suggestion provided the exact answer for which I was looking. Thanks!
