Re: Expand and collapse detail editing

You might want to look at the ASP.NET AJAX Accordian Control.  It might fit
just right.

Subject: [DOTNET-WEB] Expand and collapse detail editing

I have a Repeater control that hosts simple User List rows of system users.
Each row has an Edit icon, which the user clicks to open a User Details edit
page.  I have been told to remove the separate details page, and create a
detail edit section that expands or collapses on demand, without leaving the
base User List page.  How do I go about this?



My first idea is to include an edit control on the item template of the
Repeater, and simply use styling to hide the edit control until the edit
icon is clicked.  Then I set the display to a visible, and the edit control
handles all the edit functionality itself.  Is this the correct approach,
how could I improve on this, and what pitfalls await me?
