As I explained in my previous post, I encountered differences among browsers on how they handle cells without width but with content. Allowing the user to set the width in the cell gives me an idea, on what he/she expects .

But you know that you deny yourself this way.
This is *exactly* styling the output (i.e. hinting the style/layout)

Styling the output yes, but not *exactly* of the td tag itself (i.e. styling is transfered on a div inside the td), which was the basis of your concern in the first place

Erm, not at all.
I am not at all afraid about styling problems.
I just do not want ANY styling in the table model because it is simply not needed
What is done afterwards (i mean after () is run, and table is changed to divs) i don't care

Ehem, then you don't have to, use a colModel.

Using a colModel, only requires you to put a table with either a class or an id. The thead, tbody, tr, or td with any styling is simply won't be needed .

What approach you take in using the plugin is really up to you. An approach is optional not required, but taking one approach does have a requirement. You want less html, then you are required to put in a little more settings through javascript, or if you want less javascript, then you are required to put in a little more attributes in your html.

Either way people care about the outcome, and in order for the plugin to know what they want, they have to tell the plugin what they want.

Heya Paulo, Armorfist

I got the cell click thingy working Ty Paulo for the code.

In Armofist's example online, he shows the add , delete icons on every row.

Question I have is how did you get the icons to the cell? Looking at Amorfist's code
it looks like he added to the CSS. But I can't figure out what he did.

What I want to do is put a little info icon in the cell, and when they click it, I process
another query to get detail data. I guess I need to figure out what the id is for that row too.

Hi, Eric

You can use the process API to create a link with a class like so:

Code:

'<a href="323" class="add"></a>'

Then in your style the CSS for al link with the class "add";

Code:

a.add
    {
    display: block;
     background: url(images/add.png) no-repeat;
     height: 16px;
    width 16px;
    }

something like that.

Okay, I cheated, I added the same onclick process to every cell in the model, it is the behavior I am looking for (select a row); Is there any downside to this?

I know you posted somewhere how to get the row id so I can create a call to get the details for that record, but I cant find it paging back and forth the pages of the forum. It is starting to get long lol!

Could be a path problem, did you deploy the files in a fresh CI instalation?
