<tablify></tablify>

Transforms texts into tables. The default behavior is to use tabs as column delimiters and newlines as row delimiters. The values in the first row as assumed to be the title. Note in the example below how empty rows are ignored. As is shown in the last line a row does not need to be complete for tablify to work properly. These missing cells will get &nbsp; as content to force all cells to be drawn if borders are on, thus avoiding broken layout when, e.g. a dynamic variable happens to be empty. No attributes are required for tablify to work.

Tablify also prescans the entire table to find the widest number of cells.

Attributes

rowseparator

rowseparator=string (newline)

Defines the character or string used to seperate the rows.

cellseparator

cellseparator=string (tab)

Defines the character or string used to seperate the cells.

<tablify cellseparator=','> Element, Mass H, 1.00797 He, 4.0026 Li, 6.939 </tablify>

Element  Mass  H 1.00797 He 4.0026 Li 6.939

intable

If the intable attribute is set the tablify module will parse the indata as a table.

<tablify nice='1' intable='1'> <table><tr><th>Element</th><th>Mass</th></tr> <tr><td>H</td><td>1.00797</td></tr> <tr><td>He</td><td>4.0026</td></tr> <tr><td>Li</td><td>6.939</td></tr> </table> </tablify>

Element  Mass  H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939

notitle

Don't add a title to the columns and treat the first row in the indata as real data instead.

interactive-sort

Makes it possible for the user to sort the table with respect to any column.

sortcol

sortcol=number

Defines which column to sort the table with respect to. The leftmost column is number 1. Negative value indicate reverse sort order.

min

min=number

Decides which of the input rows should be the first one to be displayed. This can be used to skip unwanted rows in the beginning of the data. The first row after the heading is row number 1.

max

max=number

Decides which of the input rows should be the last one to be displayed. This can be used to limit the the output to a maximum number of rows.

<tablify min='2' max='4'> Stuff one two three four five six </tablify>

Stuff  two three four

negativecolor

negativecolor=color (#ff0000)

The color of negative values in economic fields.

border

border=number

Defines the width of the border. Default is 2 in nice and nicer modes. Otherwise undefined. The value is propagated into the resulting table tag if neither nice nor nicer is used.

cellspacing

cellspacing=number

Defines the cellspacing attribute. Default is 0 in nice and nicer modes. Otherwise undefined. The value is propagated into the resulting table tag if neither nice nor nicer is used.

cellpadding

cellpadding=number

Defines the cellpadding attribute. Default is 4 in nice and nicer modes. Otherwise undefined. The value is propagated into the resulting table tag if neither nice nor nicer is used.

width

width=number

Defines the width of the table.

cellalign

cellalign={left, center, right}

Defines how the cell contents should be align by default. The value is propagated into the resulting td tags if neither nice nor nicer is used.

cellvalign

cellvalign={top, middle, bottom}

Defines how the cell contents should be verically aligned. The value is propagated into the resulting td tags if neither nice nor nicer is used.

The 'nice' attribute

nice

Add some extra layout to the table. More specifically it creates a bakcground table with another color and then colors all the cells in the inner table. All attributes below only applies in nice or nicer mode.

<tablify nice='1' cellseparator=','> Element, Mass H, 1.00797 He, 4.0026 Li, 6.939 </tablify>

Element  Mass  H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939

<tablify nice='1' cellseparator=',' cellspacing='1'> Element, Mass H, 1.00797 He, 4.0026 Li, 6.939 </tablify>

Element  Mass  H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939

grid

grid=number

Draws a grid with the thickness given.

<tablify nice='1' grid='1'> Element Mass H 1.00797 He 4.0026 Li 6.939 </tablify>

Element  Mass  H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939

bordercolor

bordercolor=color (#000000)

The color of the border.

titlebgcolor

titlebgcolor=color (#112266)

The background color of the title.

titlecolor

titlecolor=color (#ffffff)

The color of the title.

modulo

modulo=number

Defines how many rows in a row should have the same color.

<tablify nice='1' cellseparator=',' modulo='2'> Element, Mass H, 1.00797 He, 4.0026 Li, 6.939 Be, 9.0122 B, 10.811 </tablify>

Element  Mass  H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939   Be   9.0122   B   10.811

oddbgcolor

oddbgcolor=color (#ffffff)

The first background color.

evenbgcolor

evenbgcolor=color (#ddeeff)

The second background color.

The 'nicer' attribute

nicer

Add some extra extra layout to the table. Compared with nice-mode it gtexts the column titles and adds a font-tag in all cells. All attributes below only applies in nicer mode. Nicer requires the gtext module.

<tablify nicer='1'> Element Mass H 1.00797 He 4.0026 Li 6.939 </tablify>

H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939

noxml

Don't terminate the images with slashes, as required by XML.

font

font=text (lucida)

The font gtext should use to write the column titles with.

<tablify nicer='1' cellseparator=', ' font='andover' fontsize='24'> Element, Mass H, 1.00797 He, 4.0026 Li, 6.939 </tablify>

H   1.00797   He   4.0026   Li   6.939

fontsize

fontsize=int (13)

The size of the gtext font used to write the column titles with.

scale

scale=float

Defined in content

<fields></fields>

The container 'fields' may be used inside the tablify container to describe the type of contents the fields in a column has. Available fields are:

• text (default)

• left

• center

• right

• num

• int

• economic-int

• float

• economic-float

All fields except text overrides the cellvalign attribute.

<tablify nice='nice'> <fields separator=','> text,center,right,float,economic-float,int,economic-int </fields> text center right float economic-float int economic-int 123.14 123.14 123.14 123.14 123.14 123.14 123.14 56.8 56.8 56.8 56.8 56.8 56.8 56.8 -2 -2 -2 -2 -2 -2 -2 </tablify>

Attributes

separator

separator=string

Defines the field type separator.

The fields types are separated by

1. The value given in the separator attribute to fields.

2. The value given in the cellseparator attribute to tablify.
