[c#] Twitter Bootstrap and ASP.NET GridView

I am having aproblem using Twitter Bootstrap from my ASP.NET application. When I use the table table-striped css class to my asp:GridView control, it treats the Header of the table as a Row.

My GridView

ASP.NET MarkUp

<asp:GridView ID="dgvUsers" runat="server" 
    CssClass="table table-hover table-striped" GridLines="None" 
    AutoGenerateColumns="False">
    <Columns>
        <asp:BoundField DataField="UserID" HeaderText="ID" Visible="false" />
        <asp:BoundField DataField="Username" HeaderText="Username" />
        <asp:BoundField DataField="FirstName" HeaderText="First Name" />
        <asp:BoundField DataField="LastName" HeaderText="Last Name" />
    </Columns>
    <RowStyle CssClass="cursor-pointer" />
</asp:GridView>

Result

<table id="cphMainContent_dgvUsers" class="table table-hover table-striped" 
       cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;">
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <th scope="col">Username</th>
            <th scope="col">First Name</th>
            <th scope="col">Last Name</th>
        </tr>
        <tr class="cursor-pointer">
            <td>user1</td>
            <td>Test</td>
            <td>User 1</td>
        </tr>
        <tr class="cursor-pointer">
            <td>user2</td>
            <td>Test</td>
            <td>User 2</td>
        </tr>
        <tr class="cursor-pointer">
            <td>user3</td>
            <td>Test</td>
            <td>User 3</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

It should be like this

<table class="table table-striped">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>#</th>
            <th>First Name</th>
            <th>Last Name</th>
            <th>Username</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>1</td>
            <td>Mark</td>
            <td>Otto</td>
            <td>@mdo</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>2</td>
            <td>Jacob</td>
            <td>Thornton</td>
            <td>@fat</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>3</td>
            <td>Larry</td>
            <td>the Bird</td>
            <td>@twitter</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

How can I make the header of my asp:GridView be treated as a Header by Twitter Bootstrap? My code is in C#, framework 4, build in VS2010 Pro.

Just for the record, I got borders in the table and to get rid of it I needed to set following properties in the GridView:

GridLines="None"
CellSpacing="-1"

There are 2 steps to resolve this:

1. Add UseAccessibleHeader="true" to Gridview tag:

   <asp:GridView ID="MyGridView" runat="server" UseAccessibleHeader="true">
   

2. Add the following Code to the PreRender event:

Protected Sub MyGridView_PreRender(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyGridView.PreRender
    Try
        MyGridView.HeaderRow.TableSection = TableRowSection.TableHeader
    Catch ex As Exception
    End Try
End Sub

Note setting Header Row in DataBound() works only when the object is databound, any other postback that doesn't databind the gridview will result in the gridview header row style reverting to a standard row again. PreRender works everytime, just make sure you have an error catch for when the gridview is empty.

Add property of show header in gridview

 <asp:GridView ID="dgvUsers" runat="server" **showHeader="True"** CssClass="table table-hover table-striped" GridLines="None" 
AutoGenerateColumns="False">

and in columns add header template

<HeaderTemplate>
                   //header column names
</HeaderTemplate>
