TableTool

What is it?

TableTool is a php class that assists in the creation and rendering of html tables., _(*1)

How do I use it?

Once you have installed it using composer you can use it like so:, _(*2)

//default table with no attributes
$table = new Table();

//define the table's class (in this case, a bootstrap table)
$table = new Table(
  array(
      "class" => "table table-bordered table-rounded"
    )
 );

//add a row to the table
$table->addRow(array('Gecko', 'Firefox 1.0', 'Win 98+ / OSX.2+',  '1.7', 'A'));

//add a header row to the table
$table->addRow(array('Engine','Browser','User Agent','version', 'CSS Grade'),null,'head');

//the null parameter above can be used in the same was as the table constructor to pass attributes to the row
$table->addRow(array('Engine','Browser','User Agent','version', 'CSS Grade'),array("style" => "background:red;"),'head');
//or on a body row
$table->addRow(array('Engine','Browser','User Agent','version', 'CSS Grade'),array("style" => "background:red;"));

//output the table to the page
echo $table->render();

Why is the outputted html all on one line?

The render() method does not care about witespace between elements, indenting, or anything else like that. It will output valid html but it will not try to make it pretty., _(*3)
