individual table css?

Heh, it just takes a little imagination ;o)

Yes, turn on the css. This allows the module to import the css from this file; tablemanager/misc/tablemanager1.css
Where you're displaying the tables (and I'm assuming you're using a filter?) set a unique class in the attributes.
Now... This will 'fool' tablemanager into applying its own tablemanager1.css file (as it does this first) but then you're overriding it setting its own class and so you can then add the unique table css to that file.

Simple really... Unless I've perhaps misunderstood something?

Incidentally, just to let you know about the forthcoming release (TM2!) This has a more comprehensive css selectbox giving you a range of styles which you can now apply per table. I'm also toying with the idea of integrating the colour picker module (like in the Garland theme), but I've discovered I'm really no good at javascript, so that may have to wait for a while...

Erm... Probably should point out at this point though that TableManager v2 is still a way off from a dev release. I keep chopping and changing stuff at the moment (well, not right at the moment, I haven't touched it for a fortnight and I'm moving house in 10 days so it'll be shelved for a while then too) - rest assured though, that it now at least looks quite professional and I'm really rather proud of it! :o)

Ah yeah sorry my bad, the file is tablemanager0.css - originally I *borrowed* (*cough*) a load of css from the table module, as I didn't know any css at all so it was just easier that way. The files were 1, 2, 3, etc... And so when I wrote my own css I named it 0 to come before the rest. Not that you needed the history lesson I guess! ;o)

It's going to be a little trickier to alter the tablemanager list page to include the css but it's not impossible. I'm afraid I don't have a 'normal' Drupal 5.x install of tablemanager though so I'll have to take a look at it tomorrow (it's just after midnight here in the UK!)

I'll get right back to you...

Thanks,

Morning! Well morning for me anyway ;o)

Yes you were more than close, you can safely change that line 1045 to something like;

$attrib['class'] = 'tablemanager-table-'. $tid;

Else if you'd prefer you can use $name rather than $tid, but then table names don't have to be unique so you'd perhaps run into problems there? If you'd rather have separate css files for each table id, you can safely alter these lines;

1045:          tablemanager_css($tid);
2518:  function tablemanager_css($tid = '0') {
2519:    $path = url(drupal_get_path('module', 'tablemanager'));
NEW:    if ($tid && !file_exists($path. '/misc/tablemanager'. $tid. '.css')) {
NEW:      $tid = '0';
NEW:    }
2520:    drupal_set_html_head('<style type="text/css" media="all">@import "'.$path.'/misc/tablemanager'. $tid. '.css";</style>');
2521:    return;
2522:  }

If the css file doesn't exist then it'll use the default 'tablemanager0.css' file instead (or you could just return; and not import a css file). Hope this helps!

PS. York is beautiful, we went there last year - it was like stepping back in time!

Do you know where in the table display I could also include class elements for the cells? Since the

Thanks for the great module.

Unfortunately Tablemanager doesn't 'produce' its own tables, it simple creates a Drupal compatible array which it passes to Drupals own table creating function. Whilst this is fairly limiting I've tried to provide as much functionality as I can by allowing class tags to be applied to cells individually when you're entering data, eg;

(enter this into a cell)
[bgcolor = red]Angry Cell!
[class = cupcake]I like cakes

etc...

I know it's not ideal, but it was never the aim of this module to provide complex tables - it was created just to simplify things for my Dad.

Thanks, that works for me!

I like that, I've added it to the 6.x-dev release.

Thanks :o)
