XHTML-conformity?

We have a running Web Project and would like to use the Aspose.Grid to integrate Excel in our Application.
When we tried the Aspose-Control we had to recognize that it doesn’t support resizing height.
Your work-around in this case, deleting the DOCTYPE-declaration, isn’t really a choice for us as we would have to redesign the complete application.

Are there any plans to make this control XHTML-conform? If so, when?

Hi,

Thanks for considering Aspose.

Which version of Aspose.Grid, you are using? Kindly use the latest version. The GridWeb control fully supports XHTML 1.0 standard. Use GridWeb.XhtmlMode property to specify XHTML rendering mode. You don't need to modify or delete entity. The GridWeb supports to resize in XHtml mode. In .net 1.0, the GridWeb.XhtmlMode's defautl value is false. And in .net 2.0, it is true by default.

You may also download the latest hotfix (Aspose.Grid.Web.dll file with other file(s)) from the location: http://www.aspose.com/Products/Aspose.Grid/Demos/

Thank you.

currently i have two problems.


1. when i try the xhtml demo on your website with a firefox browser i only see a white area where the cells should be shown, the rest, for example save-buttons and sheet-buttons is available as expected.

2. when i include the control on my webpage and i don’t enter height nor width they are both magically generated with values 350px and 400px and my CssClass can’t override these values. as i can’t set auto for these properties because a Unit-Type is expected, i can’t have my grid resize itself depending on the outer div. i used version 1.9.2 for testing.

Hi,

Thanks for considering Aspose.

1). The GridWeb controls gives best performance results and implements all the features in IE browser. So, please try to use it.

2) Could you give us some details about your working env. Are you using Asp.Net Ajax? The contols have some problems related size with Aspose.Net Ajax env. we will fix the problem soon.

And could you not adjust the size using Mouse in vs.net design IDE. and if you change the size of the grid at runtime in points, you may use the code like:

GridWeb1.Width = new Unit("300pt");

GridWeb1.Height = new Unit("300pt");

And kindly use the latest hotfix 1.9.2.5.

Thank you.

thanks for your replies, but they are not satisfying my questions.

1. on your website you have a browser compatibility chart, according to this your control should be able to render in firefox. we don’t need the firefox-incompatible features of the control, but we would be very happy if it would be showed at least, is this possible or not?

2.that’s exactly my problem
i would like to set height and width of the AsposeGrid to “auto” but that’s not possible because the Property expects a Unit-Type Value. if i leave height and width blank to set it by css-class i have the problem that, although i nowhere specified these values, an inline style is generated giving a specific height and width to the div.
would it be possible to not generate height and width values when no height and width is specified?

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

For 1). We tested on firefox. The control is not properly displayed on firefox when XhtmlMode is set to true. We will support it and make the XHtml mode completely compatible with firefox soon.

2) we will get back to you soon for your query.

Thanks for being patient!

hello,

we are still thinking about buying your product,
but we really depend on the firefox-compatibility in xhtml-mode.
Do you have a more specific date when it will be available?

Thanks in advance for your reply
