A TableItemStyle object that defines the style properties for the individual items in a DataList.

Use this property to provide a custom style for the data items in the DataList control. Common style attributes that can be set include forecolor, backcolor, font, and content alignment within the cell. Providing different item styles enhances the appearance of the DataList control.

To specify a custom style for the items of the DataList, declare an <ItemStyle> element between the opening and closing tags of the control. You can then list the style attributes within the opening <ItemStyle> tag.
