Remarks

Use the ButtonCssClass property to specify the CSS class to render on the browser for the buttons of the pager field. This property will always be rendered as the class attribute, regardless of the browser.

Note

On browsers that do not support CSS, setting the ButtonCssClass property has no effect.

The value of this property is stored in viewstate.
