Hi!
We have a html table in wicket implemented as:
foreach :: listview of table rows {
..
foreach :: list view of table cells {
..
}
}
(note: that was pseudocode)
What we would like to do, is offer users possibility to transpose the
table, however, with minimum changes to the code.
Anybody done this? Any insights?
We acknowledge that there are some inherent differences in the transposed
versions of a html table. For example table rows can be ajax updated but
table columns cannot. This might suggest that a div suitable layout should
be used? Or should we simply
ajaxRequestTarget.addComponent(xx::foreach::firstChildOfRow) visit each
first child of '*row*' when transposed?
Maybe the transpose could be done using a simple onrender string replace
operation (think along the lines of a "*complex regexp operation*").
Any ideas, comments?
Would be nice to accomplish this with a neat trick... NOT looking for a js
gimmick because that will be slow with our heavy duty tables.
