Using CollapsiblePanelExtender/any alternative Control within Gridview(binded with database) to expand and collapse data

Question

I want to use CollapsiblePanelExtender Control within GridView  and that GridView is binded with database Actually what I am trying is : 1) GridView is showing name of list of the employees  and when I click on the name of a particular employee  whole details of the employee( gets expanded ) will be shown inside Panel or anything suitable and again when I click on the Name ( details get collapsed ). 2) Expanding and collapsing can be multiple too i.e. when I click on 2 names then both the employee details must be expanded unless I collapse any of them. I am not getting the idea How and what to use for this problem. Can anyone help me out with this problem.

@Abhijit Barua: Thanks my friend for your help but you didn't get my question exactly I know that this thing can be dynamically done but list of employees that is to be shown in GridView is through database and not dynamically. The answer you suggested is valid for less number of employees and if want to make the same for 500 or 1000 employees we can't do the same. Thus database plays a major role and that's what the problem is.

take CollapsiblePanelExtender one at .aspx page. Then dynamically create pane for each employee. suppose if u have 5 employee then 5 panel will create. give panel name as employee name. now create dynimically some label and textbox as you want to show for employee details. then bind with respective data. then add all control to panel. add panel to CollapsiblePanelExtender. Thank you
