dataGrid component

I am creating GUI component to create a data grid that will allow to
sorting, filtering, scrolling (at least vertically) and paginating.
To try avoiding re-inventing the wheel (as I have done with a
component for dialog) I would like to know if such a component exists
or is planned to be implemented.

Re: dataGrid component

Alexander, all,

I'm afraid I have not seen anything quite like that around. Perhaps
someone else has done this allready?

what I think is one of the major benefits of using a declerative
language for definining your interface and your interface
interactions, in a language such as XML, is that you can easily create
shareable and reusable templates for exactly these sorts of common UI
tasks.

One can create the component as an XML stylesheet definition, possibly
with variables, then use xinclude to pull the "widget" on to one's
page and CSS to style it. What's more, this template can then be
shared with the rest of the Orbeon Forms community!

My apologies if I am being too obvious here - the focus is mostly on
the process. Perhaps it would be beneficial if the community had a
wiki where they could share code / code fragments / templates?

My 2 cents.

Henrik

If by "exists" you mean "exists in Orbeon Forms", the answer is no, and
we don't have immediate plans to implement that either as we are
focusing on the 3.5 release.

Re: dataGrid component

Erik, yes - that's what I meant.

Thank you

There is the Wiki at ObjectWeb:

https://wiki.objectweb.org/ops/Wiki.jsp

(The implementation of which, by the way, we don't like. I wish we had
MediaWiki instead.)
