I always use tableCells when I output a table. The way I think of it is:
1. Outer array contains all the rows
2. Each secondary array contains each row
3. Each element contains each cell
4. The element can be an array that contains options for the cell
$html->tableCells(
array(
array(
'Plain text',
array('Cell text', array(--options--)),
array('Cell text', array(--options--))
),
array(
array('Cell text', array(--options--)),
'Plain text',
array('Cell text', array(--options--))
),
array(
array('Cell text', array(--options--)),
array('Cell text', array(--options--)),
'Plain text'
),
)
);
So adapting the example in the book you get:
<table>
<?php echo $html->tableCells(
array(
array(
'Jul 7th, 2007',
array('Best Brownies', array('class'=>'highlight')),
'Yes'
),
array(
'Jun 21st, 2007',
array('Smart Cookies', array('valign' => 'top')),
'Yes'
),
array(
'Aug 1st, 2006',
'Anti-Java Cake',
array('No', array('id'=>'special'))
),
)
);
?>
</table>
When I put this in a view I get valign top for the Smart Cookie Cell.
