@Alex, Yes I found this in the magical Javascript Missing Manual :D I am currently doing this via the view template <span> method - because I was to lazy to add the line to every tiddler with a table :D I will definitely try the simplified code tips - thx ELS ! (beginning to learn JS - so I tend to take the long route . . .)
the actual code is pretty small, so back to my original question - is it better to leave it as a script - or convert to a plugin? Last Question - the original code had (1) problem, when I had tables inside tabs (via the tabs macro) it only rendered highlighting on the first tab, will the simplified code or a plugin version fix this? Off to experiment - Thank You for all of the suggestions !! On Jul 13, 12:16 pm, Alex Hough <[email protected]> wrote: > RE: > > <span macro='tiddler TableHighlight'></span> > > A penny just dropped!
