nrsTable / News: Recent posts

This release fixes a small bug that would skip displaying a row at the beginning of a table. This was only the case in IE.

A new version of nrsTable was released. This release fixes a bug when the user tries to change the number of entries per row.

This release fixes a bug in the changeNumRows() function.

A new version of nrsTable is out.
This release does the following:
* moves the left arrows when the user is browsing the first page and the right arrows when the user is browsing the last page.
* Deals with a bug when the links or data array was null or empty
* updates all the documentation for the project.

I'm thinking to make the rext release (even if there are no changes) a stable on (1.0) since all my tests have been pretty good.... read more

I've put up a new web site for nrsTable. This design is also open source (taken from http://openwebdesign.org/\) and it looks much better than the original one. The examples are still the same, with very little changes, and I've added a link to the forums as well as the SourceForge home page. Finally, I've also added a link to the docs. These might need to be updated, which I will do soon.

This fixes major bug that was stopping the JavaScript in the page. The error was that quicksort did not like calling outside functions. So instead this fix splits the natural compare sort (which is now a bubble sort) and the reqular sort(which is still a quicksort) and fixes the problem.
This release also adds a minor feature of being able to disable columns for sorting.

This release adds a small feature.
When the user asks for a navigation bar, it is displayed regardless of how many pages it contains. This release removes the navigation bar if the table contains only one page.

I've release a new update to nrsTable. This release adds the ability to better sort using the natural compare algorithm developed by Kristof Coomans which is based on Martin Pool's implementation. Details can be found at http://sourcefrog.net/projects/natsort/.

Because this adds new functionality to nrsTable, the new version number will be set to 0.2.

This latest release fixes a bug when using multiple tales. The problem was that the data_array (and the headers, row_links, and cell_links for that matter), was being used as a reference. So in many tables with the same data, the sorting would get messed up because they were all referingto the same array.
This was fixed by cloning the array, which is done by calling array.concat(), since there is no clone method.... read more

I've uploaded a minor change, which makes sure that the counter of pages gets updated when replacing data into an already existing table. This is done through the function newData() and it allows you to only replace the data cells (not the heading) and the links. Useful when using AJAX.

This is the first release of nrsTable. nrsTable is a JavaScript script that will generate tables based on arrays of content. These tables are sortable by clicking on the heading and can be customized to a user's needs.
There is an example in the package that will describre how to use it. I will try to also post this on the web as soon as I can.
This is a full release of everything that is described in the README and the example.html. More features can be added if there is interest.
