The Container Web Control creates a container that can be used to segment or separate elements on a Web Page. Containers can be added to Web Pages or nested within many other Web Controls such as repeaters.

, complementary
, contentinfo
, form
, main
, navigation
, region
, search
, article
, cell
, columnheader
, definition
, document
, feed
, figure
, group
, heading
, img
, list
, listitem
, math
, none
, note
, presentation
, row
, rowgroup
, rowheader
, separator
, table
, term
, toolbar
, tooltip
, tree

Assertive: any updates made to the Container are notified immediately.

by default.

This provides the ability to distribute the elements evenly in the container, based off of the selected setting.
Distribution Box - Shows how children Controls are distributed by default and allows you to quickly change their position as a block within the Container.
Stack Horizontal - Aligns all children Web Controls horizontally.
Stack Vertical - Aligns all children Web Controls vertically.
Wrap - Specifies whether all children Web Controls should be wrapped inside the Parent or not.
Spacing Children - Configures how much space is taken around each child Web Control. Possible choices are to provide a Theme Variable, or an Airscript Expression. If providing an Airscript Expression, it must result in a string with a valid size.
