This table tag helps with render tables, which can be fairly complex.

I updated the previous table tag (296).

I added support for oddrow,evenrow,lastcellinrow,oddcol,evencol. And made a few minor adjustments to syntax formatting, and some non needed if conditionals

These are all of the supported variables available in the context

{{table.counter0}} {{table.counter}} {{table.rowcounter0}} {{table.rowcounter}} {{table.startrow}} {{table.endrow}} {{table.oddrow}} {{table.evenrow}} {{table.firstrow}} {{table.lastrow}} {{table.firstcell}} {{table.lastcell}} {{table.lastcellinrow}} {{table.evencol}} {{table.oddcol}} {{table.parenttable}}

JimH10 (on September 9, 2009):

Thanks for the tag. I find it very useful.

I can do this

 {% table auth authors_list 5 %}

and it works great. Is there a simple way to do this

 {% table auth authors_list num_cols %}

where ctext['num_cols']=5 ? I have tried as above, as {{num_cols}}, setting self.cols=int(cols) in the init fcn, etc., but to no avail.

The background is that I manipulate the array in a way that depends on the number of columns (I arrange the names alphabetically from up to down instead of from left to right) and I don't want the number of columns to be hard coded in two places.

dotsbb (on January 20, 2010):

{% if table.endrow %} [tr tag] {%a endif %}

Sometimes this works wrong for last row (for example in table with 2 rows and 9 cells)

To fix it, just replace 54 line

        loopctx["endrow"]=False

to

        loopctx["endrow"]=loopctx["lastcell"]
