If you want to "transpose" your table (ie: change the rows and columns)
then it turn this implies that you want to change the structure of the
table both the format and the model.
ie: You need to provide new columns and new data model.
You would do so in 2 steps:
1) Create the new table with the new columns
2) Provide it the new data model
Then use the addOrReplace("tableId", transposedTableRef) and you're done.
Otherwise... look at transposing your table in jQuery alone on the client
side and not on the server side.
