I would like to point you to the sfGridPlugin Bernhard and me are
working on.
This plugin will provide similar functionality for paginated
resultsets (tables) as the sfForms Object for forms. It will be
capable of processing arrays, propel, doctrine, xml, csv and anything
else you write an adapter for :D
it still is in early development, but already looks promising ;)
And Example of the current code is:
$source = new sfDataSourcePropel('Message'); //this could also be
a criteria object, other adapters (for arrays and doctrine exist as
well)
$this->grid = new sfWebGrid($source); // a grid object
$this->grid->bind($request); // bound to the
request instance in your action
$this->grid->setColumns(array('message.TITLE')); // provide the
columns you want to see (including custom columns)
$this->grid->setWidget('message.TITLE', new sfWidgetLink($this-
>grid, 'view', 'message.MESSAGE_ID', array('message.MESSAGE_ID' =>
'message_id'))); // overrule the default widget for a column, For
example with a widget that can render links
$this->grid->setFormatterName('html'); // make it render to
html, new formatters can be defined as well, for example to render as
json
