Using Table, rows per page, column's td class ?
I am changing from doing a completely custom TableView to using the new
features in Table (using blocks). I now have the following question...
1. How do I control the number of rows per page? I don't see a parameter
for this that I can place in the .html/.page file
2. I see valuesClass but I need difference columns to be a different
class (or specifically set the align to right on some columns). I
thought maybe I could somehow set the class on the block or some such
but that doesn't change the alignment.
Thoughts?

Yeah, this is something I've been meaning to address. We do need to
expose the rows per page attribute up a level higher to Table.jwc. I
did this with one other attribute before. I'll see about taking care
of this if MB doesn't beat me to it.

I haven't looked into this, but I suspect we need to do a bit more with
CSS pass-through somehow.

No, you cannot do it this way. Block does not have a class parameter,
nor should it.
I'll let MB clarify his implementation proposal.

Hi,
Not quite, in the sense that you do not have to do anything at all to get
this class (no need to define a Block, etc). The class of the cell will be
what I mentioned by default, unless you override it, of course.
For example, the Table example in the Workbench renders like this on my
computer:
<td align="center" class="LanguageColumnValue">Arabic</td>
and no change of the example code was involved.
Any alternatives?

Re: Using Table, rows per page, column's td class ?
Posted by "Kevin C. Dorff" <kd...@kcp.com>.
That would be a great solution. If I understand what you are saying I
would do it like...
HTML
<span jwcid="dateColumnValue">
<span jwcid="dateColumnValueInsert"/>
</span>
PAGE
<component id="dateColumnValue" type="Block">
<static-binding name="class" value="someCssClassName"/>
</component>
<component id="dateColumnValueInsert" type="Insert">
<binding name="value"
expression="@fmtnm.tapestry.util.Format@formatDay(currentRow.date)"/>
</component>
Is that correct? Where the class binding could be either static or a
non-static binding. And this would work not just for xColumnValue but
also for xColumnHeader ... If this is what you are saying it would be a
great solution for me.

Re: Using Table, rows per page, column's td class ?
Posted by Mindbridge <mi...@yahoo.com>.
I was thinking of automatically setting the class attributes to '<column
id>ColumnValue' and '<column id>ColumnHeader' unless valuesClass and
columnsClass are set. This is simpler solution, but it should do what is
needed in most cases, no?
It also has the advantage that it is not affected columns are moved around
or new ones are added (something that I think is important).

Suggestion: How about like a comma seperated list for columns make
columnsClass and valuesClass also be able to take a comma seperated list
for css classes for the columns. Something like that make sense?

It is in the table state. Something like this, perhaps:
objTableModel.getPagingState().setPageSize(50);
This is probably something that has to be made a parameter as well when the
source/columns approach is used.

valuesClass can be an expression, for example it can invoke the
getValuesClass() method by setting it to "ognl:valuesClass".
You can obtain the current column either by using the 'column' parameter of
TableValues (if you use the lower level components) or Table. You can also
obtain it by invoking getTableColumn() on either of the two.
Once you have the column, you can decide what to return in getValuesClass().
Hope this helps.
