competely overrides previous preferences (for example in User.SitePreferences or Configure):
* Set TABLEPLUGIN_TABLEATTRIBUTES = cellpadding="0" <<< this will remove previously set preferences and leave only 1 attribute
If you pass %TABLE{...}%
parameters, you partially override previously set preferences:
* %TABLE{datacolor="#f00"}% <<< this will only change the data color attribute
disableallsort
is normally not used as a TABLE or TABLEPLUGIN_TABLEATTRIBUTES setting. Plugins such as EditTablePlugin dynamically sets disableallsort
to disable sorting while editing a table. For this to work it is important that EditTablePlugin runs before TablePlugin, which is the default. The setting sort
can be overwritten by a URL parameter or hidden formfield of the same name. Plugins such as EditTablePlugin can use this to disable table header sorting while in edit mode.
%TABLE{ sort="on" tableborder="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="3" cellborder="0" headerbg="#D5CCB1" headercolor="#666" databg="#FAF0D4, #F3DFA8" headerrows="2" footerrows="1" }%

, then the row with the sort links is the row
closest to the data (the last row in the header). If you do not specify
headerrows
, the first row that has a heading in the first column is the
sort row. To sort by the first footer row, set headerrows="0"
.

17 Sep 2009 | 1.120: Arthur Clemens: Added include parameter. |
16 Sep 2009 | 1.110: Arthur Clemens: Added attributes headerrules and datarules . Fixed potential bug where Explorer won't render more than 20 table CSS tags. Fix sorting on IP addresses. |
13 Sep 2009 | 1.100: Arthur Clemens: Removed HTML formatting in favor of a pure CSS rendering. Code refactoring and bug fixes: • Fixed a bug that ignored cellspacing (Foswikitask:Item8270). • Sorting is now possible with multiple header rows (Foswikitask:Item8122). • Fixed sorting of dates prior to 1970. |

16 Dec 2007 | 1.030: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fixed the problem of tables being sorted by by TablePlugin while the table is being edited by plugins such as EditTablePlugin. This required adding a new attribute disableallsort so plugins such as EditTablePlugin can temporarily disable all sorting for a table. Additionally the CGI variable (URL parameter or hidden formfield) sort can be set to "off" which disables all header sorting in the topic. This is used by plugins such as EditTablePlugin to disable the sorting by clicking header fields during editing of tables. Ref: TWikibug:Item5135 and TWikibug:Item2690. |

27 Dec 2006 | 1.020: Kenneth Lavrsen: Fixed initsort so all tables can be initsorted and not only the first. When you sort a table by clicking on the header of a column the table gets sorted accordingly. When you click the header of another table the previously sorted table goes back being sorted as specified by initsort. |
13 Dec 2006 | 1.019: Arthur Clemens: Prevent sorting of columns that do no exist. |
