public final class TableElement
extends MultiPartElement

A TableElement is analogous to an HTML table. It is built by adding TableRowElements (which contain TableDataElements) to it. The TableElement class is also used to set general characteristics for constructing tables on an htmlKona page.

Use the addElement() method in this class to add TableRowElements to a TableElement. For example, this shows how to created a nested table by adding TableRowElements to a TableElement tab:

      TableElement tab = new TableElement()
              .setBorder(1)
              .setCellPadding(5)
              .setWidth(50%)
              .setCaption(new StrongElement("Fall Registration Schedule").asItalicElement());
       tab.addElement(new TableRowElement()
                      .addElement(new TableHeadingElement(new AnchorElement(AnchorType.name,
                                                                     "topic",
                                                                     "Topic")))
                      .addElement(new TableHeadingElement("Value").setBgColor(HtmlColor.navy)));
       tab.addElement(new TableRowElement()
                      .addElement(new TableDataElement(reg.getID()).setVAlign(AlignType.top))
                      .addElement(new TableDataElement(new TableElement(reg.getMain())
                                                       .setCaption(new BoldElement("N1"))
                                                       .setBorder(1))
                                  .setVAlign(AlignType.top)));
       page.getBody().addElement(new CenteredElement(tab));

and so forth.

When you construct a TableElement with a dbKona DataSet, the Schema of the DataSet is used to construct an HTML table and each Record in the DataSet is automatically displayed as a row in the HTML table. Use a constructor with the boolean "withHeading" set to true to show column names at the top of the table.

Constructors in this class also support table generation with Dictionary and WebLogic ParamSet objects.

This class has variables for the HTML attributes border, caption, cellpadding, cellspacing, width, background image, and background color. Use AlignType objects to set the ALIGN and VALIGN elements. This class also support several browser extensions, including BORDERSTYLE, BACKGROUND, and BGCOLOR.

In compliance with HTML 4.0, TableElement supports the attributes align, bgcolor, width, cols, border, frame, rules, cellspacing, and cellpadding. Other attributes, including id, class, lang, title, etc., are available with methods from its superclass.
