TABLEPLUGIN_SORT | Make all tables in a topic sortable. If this is set to all , all tables that have a header row (including those that do not have %TABLE before them) will be made sortable. If set to none , only tables with %TABLE will be sortable. Topic rendering is faster if this is set to none . |

settings override TABLEATTRIBUTES
preferences settings, which override the TABLEATTRIBUTES
Plugin settings.
The setting disableallsort
is normally not used as a TABLE or TABLEATTRIBUTES setting. Plugins such as EditTablePlugin dynamically sets disableallsort
to disable sorting while editing a table. For this to work it is important that EditTablePlugin runs before TablePlugin, which is the default. The setting sort
can be overwritten by a URL parameter or hidden formfield of the same name. Plugins such as EditTablePlugin can use this to disable table header sorting while in edit mode.
%TABLE{ sort="on" tableborder="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="3" cellborder="0" headerbg="#D5CCB1" headercolor="#666666" databg="#FAF0D4, #F3DFA8" headerrows="2" footerrows="1" }%

Version: | 6110 (2010-01-21) |
Release: | 1.045 |
Change History: | |
21 Jan 2010 | 1.045: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fixed initdirection not working in persistant perl environment |
08 Dec 2009 | 1.044: Arthur Clemens: Improved documentation for date formats. |
21 Sep 2009 | 1.043: Kenneth Lavrsen: Added check for valid value for initsort. Ignore if it is not a number. |
12 Sep 2009 | 1.042: Kenneth Lavrsen: Added a new API call initialiseWhenRender which plugins like CompareRevisionsAddOn can use to reset the table counters between two renderings of the same topic |
03 Sep 2009 | 1.041: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fix for crash when cell contains the number 0. Allow sorting of negative numbers even when suffixed with unit. Treat whitespace as zero if pure numerical context. |
02 Sep 2009 | 1.040: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fixed the fix of parsing date-time columns so that plain numbers are not interpreted as dates causing wrong sorting |
03 Jun 2009 | 1.039: Michael Daum: fixed parsing date-time columns |
19 Apr 2009 | 1.038: Removed support for settings in the plugin topic which is a bad idea anyway as they get overwritten at each Foswiki upgrade. Define the global settings in Main.SitePreferences instead. Fixed an issue where TablePlugin produced invalid css if no 'px' or '%' is passed in a size parameter. Small refactoring in style attribute handling. |
16 Dec 2008 | 1.037: Foswiki version |
30 Sep 2008 | 1.035: Fix sorting of attachment date column. |
03 Aug 2008 | 1.034: TWiki 4.2.1 release version |
20 Mar 2008 | 1.033: TWikibug:Item5387: allow rowspanned columns to contain HTML tags; otherwise it is impossible to add an invisible anchor to a rowspanned cell |
16 Dec 2007 | 1.030: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fixed the problem of tables being sorted by by TablePlugin while the table is being edited by plugins such as EditTablePlugin. This required adding a new attribute disableallsort so plugins such as EditTablePlugin can temporarily disable all sorting for a table. Additionally the CGI variable (URL parameter or hidden formfield) sort can be set to "off" which disables all header sorting in the topic. This is used by plugins such as EditTablePlugin to disable the sorting by clicking header fields during editing of tables. Ref: TWikibug:Item5135 and TWikibug:Item2690. |
03 Dec 2007 | Arthur Clemens: Fixed rendering and order of html elements thead , tfoot and tbody ; corrected id parameter. |
24 Nov 2007 | Arthur Clemens: Fixed sorting of columns with only icons; also removed TWiki formatting before sorting. |
06 Oct 2007 | 15180: PTh: Added VarTABLE to have it listed in System.Macros |
27 Jun 2007 | 1.024 - 1.027: Various small bug fixes. |
24 Jun 2007 | 1.023: Arthur Clemens: Inline styles are now written to the head; updated default sort icons (from DocumentGraphics). |
23 Jun 2007 | 1.022: Arthur Clemens: Fixed styling of param tablerules on Internet Explorer. |
23 May 2007 | 1.021: Michael Daum: Fixed css attribute priority to cooperate nicely with skin themes. |
27 Dec 2006 | 1.020: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fixed initsort so all tables can be initsorted and not only the first. When you sort a table by clicking on the header of a column the table gets sorted accordingly. When you click the header of another table the previously sorted table goes back being sorted as specified by initsort. |
13 Dec 2006 | 1.019: Arthur Clemens: Prevent sorting of columns that do no exist. |
02 Dec 2006 | 1.018: Arthur Clemens: Data rows now start with first datacolor and databgcolor . |
