HTML::TableParser::Table(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     HTML::TableParser::Table(3pm)

NAME

       HTML::TableParser::Table - support class for HTML::TableParser

DESCRIPTION

       This class is used to keep track of information related to a table and to create the information passed back to the user callbacks.  It is
       in charge of marshalling the massaged header and row data to the user callbacks.

       An instance is created when the controlling TableParser class finds a "<table" tag.  The object is given an id based upon which table it is
       to work on.  Its methods are invoked from the TableParser callbacks when they run across an appropriate tag ("tr", "th", "td").	The object
       is destroyed when the matching "/table" tag is found.

       Since tables may be nested, multiple HTML::TableParser::Table objects may exist simultaneously.	HTML::TableParser uses two pieces of
       information held by this class -- ids and process.  The first is an array of table ids, one element per level of table nesting.	The second
       is a flag indicating whether this table is being processed (i.e. it matches a requested table) or being ignored.  Since HTML::TableParser
       uses the ids information from an existing table to initialize a new table, it first creates an empty sentinel (place holder) table (by
       calling the HTML::TableParser::Table constructor with no arguments).

       The class handles missing "/tr", "/td", and "/th" tags.	As such (especially when handling multi-row headers) user callbacks may be
       slightly delayed (and data cached).  It also handles rows with overlapping columns

NAME

       Vend::Table::Editor -- Interchange do-all HTML table editor

SYNOPSIS

       [table-editor OPTIONS]

       [table-editor OPTIONS] TEMPLATE [/table-editor]

DESCRIPTION

       The [table-editor] tag produces an HTML form that edits a database table or collects values for a "wizard". It is extremely configurable as
       to display and characteristics of the widgets used to collect the input.

       The widget types are based on the Interchange "[display ...]" UserTag, which in turn is heavily based on the ITL core "[accessories ...]"
       tag.

       The "simplest" form of "[table-editor]" is:

	       [table-editor table=foo]

       A page which contains only that tag will edit the table "foo", where "foo" is the name of an Interchange table to edit. If no "foo" table
       is "defined", then nothing will be displayed.

       If the "mv_metadata" entry "foo" is present, it is used as the definition for table display, including the fields to edit and labels for
       sections of the form. If "ui_data_fields" is defined, this cancels fetch of the view and any breaks and labels must be defined with
       "ui_break_before" and "ui_break_before_label". More on the view concept later.

       A simple "wizard" can be made with:

	       [table-editor
			       wizard=1
			       ui_wizard_fields="foo bar"
			       mv_nextpage=wizard2
			       mv_prevpage=wizard_intro
			       ]

       The purpose of a "wizard" is to collect values from the user and place them in the $Values array. A next page value (option mv_nextpage)
       must be defined to give a destination; if mv_prevpage is defined then a "Back" button is presented to allow paging backward in the wizard.
