How to force the ASP.NET GridView Control Package Tags in the first line

dgvRate.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader;

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) 
{
 dgvRate.UseAccessibleHeader = true;
 dgvRate.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader;
 dgvRate.HeaderRow.CssClass = "headerclass";
}

I want to use my asp.Net GridView control to use Christian Bach’s tableSorter client-side table sorting jQuery plugin.

< p>But the problem is that in the document it wrote:

tablesorter works on standard HTML
tables. You must include THEAD and
TBODY tags :

Unfortunately, asp.net only uses tags and header rows to render my GridView as row 1.

I tried:

dgvRate.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader;

After calling .DataBind();

It only helps < /TH> is inside the title. But still everything is inside

I can do this, I mean move my first line from

to < thead>< / thead>?

I don’t want to add it manually in the PreRender stage; I believe this can be handled more easily, can’t it?

Thank you

Sometimes you have to give it an accessible class to trigger it, as shown below:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) 
{
 dgvRate.UseAccessibleHeader = true;
 dgvRate.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader; 
 dgvRate.HeaderRow.CssClass = "headerclass";
}

Although, in order to behave consistently in all situations, I will go to the PreRender route.
