Possible to specify ID and Class to a tbale generated from the table class?

For CSS I would like to apply an ID and a class to a table generated using the CI table class - how would I  do this please?

@colin147,

You could create templates that use an specific ID and class when generating a table. There is an example in the documentation of how to create a template ( https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/l...le%20class ).

It is quite easy. You simply adjust the template used to build the table. In this example a class and id are added to the table opening tag. 

PHP Code:

$template = array(
        'table_open' => '<table class="fancy_table_css" id="my-cool-table" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">',
);
$this->table->set_template($template); 


Read all about it: Documented here.

Ah, templates!  Thanks guys, I knew there was a simple answer somewhere!

The best place I found to place the Table Templates is in the MY_Controller.
