Creating Rows
| [Previous] [Main] [Next] |
|
| |
| Table rows are created using htmlTableRow. You can add as many rows as you like to a table, subject to memory limitations. Even though you can add a practically limitless number of rows, the user's browser may have a limit, plus the user may not be willing to wait for an extremely long document to download. For these reasons, we suggest restraining table size to a few pages at most.
| |
|
| |
| Row objects are added to htmlTable objects using the << insertion operator or the Add() method. htmlTable overrides the Add() method (and thus the << operator) so that any object added to a table is implicity converted to an htmlTableRow object if necessary. This feature makes it convenient to simply add items to a table using << without instantiating htmlTableRow directly (see Example 1 below).
| |
|
| |
| htmlTable table ;
| |
| table << "This is row one"
| |
| << "This is row two"
| |
| << "This is row three" ;
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Although you can add row objects directly (or implicitly) to a table, unless the table contains just one column you'll want to use htmlTableCell to produce columnar tables.
| |
|
| |
| htmlTable table ;
| |
| htmlTableRow row1 ;
| |
| htmlTableRow row2 ;
| |
|
| |
| row1 << htmlTableCell( "row1,col1" )
| |
| << htmlTableCell( "row1,col2" ) ;
| |
|
| |
| row2 << htmlTableCell( "row2,col1" )
| |
| << htmlTableCell( "row2,col2" ) ;
| |
|
| |
| table << row1 << row2 ;
| |
|
| |
| Similarly to htmlTable, htmlTableRow will implicity convert objects added to it to htmlTableCell objects if necessary. This makes it convenient to add text as cells to rows without explicitly using htmlTableCell.
| |
|
| |
| If the information for the cells is readily available, it's often convenient to use nested parentheses to create an intermediate htmlTableRow object in-line, adding cells to it a single statement (see Example 2 below):
| |
|
| |
| htmlTable table ;
| |
| table << ( htmlTableRow() << "row1,col1" << "row1,col2" )
| |
| << ( htmlTableRow() << "row2,col1" << "row2,col2" ) ;
| |
|

| |
| #include <stdio.h>
| |
| #include <stdlib.h>
| |
| #include <dcmicro/htmlpp/htmlpp.h>
| |
|
| |
| int main( void )
| |
| {
| |
| htmlCgi server ;
| |
| htmlPage page( "html++ example application" ) ;
| |
|
| |
| htmlTable table ;
| |
| table.Border(3).Align(align_center).CellPadding(10) ;
| |
|
| |
| // The text objects will be implicitly converted to
| |
| // htmlTableRow objects (which will add the text as
| |
| // htmlTableCell objects), saving us the trouble and
| |
| // making the code more readable. The result will be
| |
| // a one-column table.
| |
| table << "This is row one"
| |
| << "This is row two"
| |
| << "This is row three" ;
| |
|
| |
| page << table ;
| |
|
| |
| server << page ;
| |
| return 0 ;
| |
| }
