--- Comment #26 from Brion Vibber <br...@wikimedia.org> 2011-06-23 20:41:00 UTC --- A test case for rowspan was added in r90657, confirming that rowspan groups are being split up into individual duplicated cells prior to sorting. I don't see any evidence of the re-merging described above in comment 7, so that might not have made it into the new version. There's also no test treatment of the issue originally mentioned in this bug -- tables using colspan groups to add breaks / subheaders to a long table such as on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late-November_2005_tornado_outbreak Way up top there's a mention of the idea that fixing bug 4740 (support for thead, tbody, tfoot elements of table) would allow that to be resolved -- I think by letting folks group each set of rows into a separate <tbody>, and sorting within each one...? I presume this would require setting the breaker rows to be individually unsortable, and grouped into the <tbody>s that they describe (they can't be separate <thead> chunks, you can only have one <thead> at the top). So the table at [[Wisconsin_Tornado_Outbreak_of_August_2005]] might be restructured something like: <table> <thead> <tr><th>F#</th>...</tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr><th colspan="7">Minnesota</th></tr> <tr><td>F0</td>...</tr> </tbody> <tbody> <tr><th colspan="7">Wisconsin</th></tr> <tr><td>F0</td>...</tr> <tr><td>F1</td>...</tr> </tbody> </table> -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
