Not sure if this is what you are talking about, but the name "repeater" has never quite sat well with me. When I explain it to people they look at me funny until I break down and say "it's a table!". This is not quite right, since it does much more than act as a static table, but do you have any ideas for a clearer/more intuitive name for it?
We use "Grid"....
Definitely a possibility. Clearly different than a database "table", which could give the wrong impression of always being 1-to-1 with a db table, and it is not tied too closely to html tables, which may not be how it is shown anyway.
Also "nested grids" gives a good visual picture that the phrase "nested repeaters" never managed to conjure in my mind. +1 "grid"
In XUL it's also named grid and the child elements are rows and columns.
