[Solved] Why does this code add a blank row between each row with data?

[keymmachine]

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True"
            DataSourceID="AccessDataSource1" DataKeyNames="ID"
             AllowSorting="True" Skin="" GroupingEnabled="False">
        <MasterTableView DataSourceID="AccessDataSource1" CssClass="data2" >
            <NoRecordsTemplate>
               There are no items available.
            </NoRecordsTemplate>
            <ItemTemplate>
                   <tr>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="IDLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("ID") %>' />
                        </td>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="FirstNameLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("FirstName") %>' />
                        </td>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="LastNameLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("LastName") %>' />
                        </td>
                        <td>
                            <asp:Label ID="CompanyLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Company") %>' />
                        </td>
                   </tr>
                </ItemTemplate>

                <PagerStyle />

        </MasterTableView>
        </telerik:RadGrid>

Hi Andrew Keym,

The ItemTemplate should have a wrapper <table> tag. The current configuration leads to invalid XHTML markup on the page.

When I add a table tag it looks worse.  See attachment.  Any ideas?

Hi again,

First, the <table> needs a 100% width, as tables normally do not expand. Also, if you want to align data cells with header cells, the table should have a table-layout:fixed style applied. Finally, if you don't want the template <table> cells to inherit border styles from the RadGrid skin (which is normal), you should apply explicit styles to remove the borders, for example, add a CSS class to the <table> and then use

div.RadGrid  table.MyTableClass  td
{
       border: 0;
}


All the best,
