GridView getting height and width of columns/rows

Question

I am trying to set the top gridview's column's width to the body's column width and then the left columns height to the body's coloumns height. Here is my code:

<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
    <asp:Table ID="Table1" runat="server">
        <asp:TableRow>
            <asp:TableCell>
            </asp:TableCell><asp:TableCell>
                <asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" ShowHeader="false">
                </asp:GridView>
            </asp:TableCell></asp:TableRow>
        <asp:TableRow>
            <asp:TableCell>
                <asp:GridView ID="GridView3" runat="server" ShowHeader="false">
                </asp:GridView>
            </asp:TableCell><asp:TableCell>
                <asp:GridView ID="GridView4" runat="server" ShowHeader="false">
                </asp:GridView>
            </asp:TableCell></asp:TableRow>
    </asp:Table>
</div>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Button1_Click" Text="Button" />
</form>

Here is the code behinde:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                DataTable dt1 = new DataTable();
                DataTable dt2 = new DataTable();
                DataTable dt3 = new DataTable();

                DataRow row;

                dt1.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Description", Type.GetType("System.String")));
                dt1.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("ROXORZZOZO!!", Type.GetType("System.String")));
                dt1.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("MY", Type.GetType("System.String")));
                row = dt1.NewRow();
                row["Description"] = "WOOOO";
                row["ROXORZZOZO!!"] = "EOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!";
                row["MY"] = "My time to shine!";
                dt1.Rows.Add(row);
                row = dt1.NewRow();
                row["Description"] = "MO!";
                row["ROXORZZOZO!!"] = "EOOOO!";
                row["MY"] = "My time to dine!";
                dt1.Rows.Add(row);
                row = dt1.NewRow();
                row["Description"] = "WOOOO";
                row["ROXORZZOZO!!"] = "EOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!Hey Guys,Today(Thursday) I need to leave early at three to take care of some personal business.  Also, next Wednesday I’m going to be out of the office all day, taking a welding certification test.  I’ll also send out an OOO form.";
                row["MY"] = "My time to be fine!";
                dt1.Rows.Add(row);

                dt2.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Description", Type.GetType("System.String")));

                GridView2.DataSource = new DataView(dt2);
                GridView4.DataSource = new DataView(dt1);
                GridView2.DataBind();
                GridView3.DataBind();
                GridView4.DataBind();
                SynchGridviews(GridView2, GridView3, GridView4);
            }
        }

    protected void SynchGridviews(GridView top, GridView left, GridView body)
        {

Answer 1

If your table is snug against its surrounding divs, then you will be unable to re-size your columns/rows, so create a giant div around your table and you will be able to re-size it.
