> This is a feature request for a tool that simplifies the handling of complex
> HTML using Velocity. The basic idea is to take the pain out of using complex
> hierarchies of Velocity macros to place HTML tags such as <tr> and <td> in
> the right places for tables with non-trivial structures (using e. g. colspan
> and rowspan). This is made possible by handling the logical table data
> structure in Java code and by using a dedicated Table class to communicate
> information in between the Java application and the Velocity context.
> A short discussion thread can be found in the forum using this link:
> http://velocity.markmail.org/search/?q=table+cell+laux#query:table%20cell%20laux+page:1+mid:du3pucnapp6ezbzp+state:results
> Based on that initial contact, follow-up discussions with Nathan Bubna took
> place over the last few months. Effectively, a 1.0 version of this tool was
> already built by Matthias Laux, the submitter of this reature request issue.
> The sources will be attached.
> Additional information on what the tool does and what the code actually looks
> like can also be found in this article:
> http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2008/jw-01-htmltables.html
> Remaining work needs to be done for example on implementing unit tests. The
> effort estimate relates to these.
