ExpansionToggler

Table of Contents

Overview

Since 3.0

Renders a control to toggle the expanded state of a row in the DataTable.

If this table only contains either PanelExpansion or RowExpansion, that type of expansion will occur. If both are children of the table, the 'expansion type' for each row is configurable via the RowState.

See the ICEfaces Showcase Live Demo of this component, complete with source code.
