Section control
The Section control creates an area in which layout elements are stacked vertically or arranged horizontally in a row.
When users view a Section instance, they see its label on a background color.
On most browsers, the background color is a gradient. However, in Microsoft Internet Explorer 9, the background color is solid. This difference does not affect the functionality.
