I am creating a grid (so something with rows and columns with buttons in the cells) and a slider that should alter the number of columns.
The number of rows is virtually unlimited and, since the grid layout in bootstrap is implemented with a flexbox i should either swap column classes or redraw everything every onchange event.
is there another way in bootstrap or do i need to create a grid layout from scratch and alter the column layout each time?
i managed to do that by adding a counter of elements inside a row and whenever i reach the desired element number i append a new row and start adding elements to the last row
like so
if(indexofrow%element.getColNumber()==0){
indexofrow++;
document.getElementById("canvas").insertAdjacentHTML("beforeend","<div class='row flex-nowrap'/></div>");
drawSingleButton(i,element,arrayOfLayers);
}else{
drawSingleButton(i,element,arrayOfLayers);
indexofrow++;
}
it's probably a cheap workaround but for my case it works

We are designing HTML pages for print and one of the requirements for tables is, whenever a page or column break occurs, to generate an indicator like "Continues..." below the table before the break (page or column) and in the header of the continuation of the table, another indication, like table title and the text "Continued", followed by the normal flow of the content.
For the top-level container, we are planning to use CSS multi-columns and normal html table element for the table. It seems CSS columns do not expose any pseudo-classes to decorate the column breaks.
Below is the layout I'm looking for,
Here's how I'd approach it:
Put hidden div above table
<div id="cont-label" style="display:none;">Continues...</div>
Know table size
By either sending its size to UI, or getting its size usign javascript:
var size= $('#mytable tr').length;
size is saved in javascript or in table div data attribute data-size=12
Know if table is "chopped"
If table on home is displaying a number of rows that's less than table size, either by counting rows or by having fixed number of rows displayed (depends on your design). Let's say displayed size is displayedSize.
Compare and act
Better to be in jQuery
Get both size and displayedSize and compare:
if( displayedSize < size ){
$("#cont-label").show();
}
I will assume that the next page will always show the text "Continued" because otherwise why have full page for table in the first place. I see you display the whole table and not the chopped part only ad this makes implementation easier, please correct me.
So I have two tables horizontally next to each other. Everything is aligned initially. However, when the element inside one cell of the left table increases in size, it wraps and increases the cell height. How can I align two tables even with the left cell height increased?
Here is the image of what it looks like:
Without wrapping:
With wrapping:
IMHO you have two options.
Use single table so that entire row will have same height. Or
Use div instead of table because div has overflow option. Refer this link
Update after comment:
If you can use jquery, you could do it on page load. Refer this fiddler
Note: height attributes for both table's row and class name. Un-comment jquery line number 3 and execute.
I created a visualization with d3
http://jbk1109.github.io/tennisMapWithPlayersListOnHover.html
When mouse hovers over the histogram, a list appears underneath. There are a couple cases when the list becomes too long and I would like the table to grow horizontally beyond certain length.
Is there an optimal way to do this other than checking the length of list and appending a new table element?
Nice job Brian! I would try to get viewport height with jQuery, and compare it witch table height, something like:
if(table_height > viewport_height) {
// change table css style to 2 column table
}
A selection on page and are used to filter the items in a table.
the table displays like this:
Here we can see the item's color is gray-dark every other row.
if I modify some of them(I modified two gray items):
and using the selection to show the modified ones:
the rows of the table are all gray, not gray-dark...
I guess this is because ng-show hides the other rows but not reload the css(I use ng-class-odd to draw the table rows color)
Are there any good ideas to let the filtered items displays gray-dark every other row?
Use ng-if instead of ng-show.
Then the rows won't be included in the DOM, and the CSS selector of odd/even will work.
I have an HTML page that has static tables placed in the page because these never change. I have a main table that houses all the elements to keep everything aligned. This is probably what is causing the problem.
I have the main table with 2 tables within it. Each row in the first inner table, called dropDownTable, usually has up to about 10 rows. dropDownTable is in the following format:
td1: text; td2: select element; td3: text (this part is dynamically updated).
The second table, called showDetails, uses the options from the select element in the rows in dropDownTable to query a database (onchange attribute), get some information and then display each element that is found. The response from the database is up to 150 character strings, usually shorter though.The user then clicks an element in the details that updates the third column in the dropDownTable.
I'm not really sure if this is a JavaScript or HTML problem but each time the showDetails table updates, it pushes the bottom of the main table down. There are 2 buttons at the bottom of the main table that move each time the user changes the select in the second column of dropDownTable.
It very aesthetically displeasing.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have had this problem before but with other elements.
are you adding more content, thus making the table taller?
I cant quite understand what your problem is exactly, but:
td
{
vertical-align: top;
}
will keep everything in the top of its cell, rather than centering to the tallest column.
You shouldnt be using tables for layout, tables are for tabular data. have a read of this
if you want to fix the heght of the table, do:
table
{
height: 400px; /* replace with your heihgt */
}
