Html Table class in Python..more examples

initial table

    tabledict = {'width':'800','border':2,'bgcolor':'white'}

    t  = PyHtmlTable.PyHtmlTable( 2, 2, tabledict )

    t.setCellcontents(0,0,"T1 Cell 00")
    t.setCellcontents(0,1,"T1 Cell 01")
    t.setCellcontents(1,0,"T1 Cell 01")
    t.setCellcontents(1,1,"T1 Cell 11")

    t.display()

T1 Cell 00	T1 Cell 01
T1 Cell 01	T1 Cell 11

Adding a column in bulk, passing in attributes Note: The table auto expands as the array being passed in is bigger

    a = ["one", "two", "three" ]

    t.add_array_to_col( 0, 0, a, {'bgcolor':'green'} )
    t.display()

one	T1 Cell 01
two	T1 Cell 11
three

Adding a row in bulk is similar...adding to last row of table

    b = ["rone", "rtwo", "rthree" ]

    t.add_array_to_row( t.getmaxRow()+1, 0, b, {'bgcolor':'grey'} )
    t.display()

one	T1 Cell 01
two	T1 Cell 11
three
rone	rtwo	rthree

Set default attributes for cells in table...setting bgcolor to red
Note: these will be overridden by explict attribute settings for a given cell, hence the green and grey cells

    
    t.setCellDefattrs({'bgcolor':'red'})

    t.display()

one	T1 Cell 01
two	T1 Cell 11
three
rone	rtwo	rthree

Updating Cell attributes are additive by default but can be overridden by setting a toggle with the
t.setReplaceCellattrs()
and reset to the default append mode with with the:
t.setAppendCellattrs() method
You can also explicitly clear cells/row/table attributes with calls to
clearCellattrs( row, col)
clearRowattrs( row )
clearTableattrs()

        t.setCellattrs( 0,0, {'bgcolor':'red'})

    yields a cell that looks like

        TD bcolor="RED"

    Subsequent calls to t.setCellattrs(0,0, {'width':100})
    
     yields a cell that looks like

        TD bcolor="RED" WIDTH="100"

    You can use clearCellattrs( row, col ) to explicitly delete a
    cell's attributes

    OR

    Set the global toggle

       t.setReplaceCellattrs()

    The second call to
         t.setCellattrs(0,0, {'width':100})
    above yieds a cell that looks like

         TD WIDTH="100"

Clear tables attributes, set 0 border and redisplay

    t.clearTableattrs()
    t.setTableattrs({'border':0})
    t.display()

one	T1 Cell 01
two	T1 Cell 11
three
rone	rtwo	rthree
