HTML Table Class :: showing up as text on view? - birdsaloon - 11-16-2019
I am playing with the code for CI4 for the first time this weekend, I wanted to get familiar with the HTML class specifically the HTML Table Class. Using the information on your codeigniter4.github.io site I had tried to make a test page so see how this works with the code below:
Test.php (Controller) below line:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php namespace App\Controllers;
use CodeIgniter\Controller;
helper('array');
class Test extends Controller {
public function index() {
$parser = \Config\Services::parser();
$table = new \CodeIgniter\View\Table();
$template = [
'table_open' => '<table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">',
'thead_open' => '<thead>',
'thead_close' => '</thead>',
'heading_row_start' => '<tr>',
'heading_row_end' => '</tr>',
'heading_cell_start' => '<th>',
'heading_cell_end' => '</th>',
'tfoot_open' => '<tfoot>',
'tfoot_close' => '</tfoot>',
'footing_row_start' => '<tr>',
'footing_row_end' => '</tr>',
'footing_cell_start' => '<td>',
'footing_cell_end' => '</td>',
'tbody_open' => '<tbody>',
'tbody_close' => '</tbody>',
'row_start' => '<tr>',
'row_end' => '</tr>',
'cell_start' => '<td>',
'cell_end' => '</td>',
'row_alt_start' => '<tr>',
'row_alt_end' => '</tr>',
'cell_alt_start' => '<td>',
'cell_alt_end' => '</td>',
'table_close' => '</table>'
];
$table->setTemplate($template);
$table->setHeading('Name', 'Color', 'Size');
$table->addRow('Fred', 'Blue', 'Small');
$table->addRow('Mary', 'Red', 'Large');
$table->addRow('John', 'Green', 'Medium');
$mytable = $table->generate();
$data = [
'table' => $mytable,
];
echo view('templates/topfooter');
echo $parser->setData($data)
->render('test');
echo view('templates/navagation');
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the view as shown below the line: test.php
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title of the document</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="w3-padding w3-display-middle">
{table}
</div>
</body>
</html>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The end result I am getting is this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0"> <thead> <tr> <th>Name</th><th>Color</th><th>Size</th></tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Fred</td><td>Blue</td><td>Small</td></tr> <tr> <td>Mary</td><td>Red</td><td>Large</td></tr> <tr> <td>John</td><td>Green</td><td>Medium</td></tr> </tbody> </table>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When looking at the page source I am seeing this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<div class="w3-padding w3-display-middle">
<table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Name</th><th>Color</th><th>Size</th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Fred</td><td>Blue</td><td>Small</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>Mary</td><td>Red</td><td>Large</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>John</td><td>Green</td><td>Medium</td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong here? One thing I can say is when I set the $template array it seems nothing is showing up? So I think the framework is skipping that all together?
I appreciate any input -

RE: HTML Table Class :: showing up as text on view? - ciadmin - 11-16-2019
Two things wrong:
1) using the template parser, you need to tell it not to escape the generated HTML, i.e. $parser->setData($data,'raw')
->render('test');
2) Your very long post would be easier to read with bbcode ;P ... https://forum.codeigniter.com/misc.php?action=help&hid=7

My apologies, LOL. I am new to this forum. Actually forums in general. I am mainly solution miner using google. I read a solution and try to implement it. If it works great, if not I keep mining for a solution.
After hours on google, I decided to try here.
I will read the bbcode and I appreciate you giving me the heads up.
Using the raw option worked. Thank you very much!
