But it does allow all these... - You have to implement sorting yourself which is nice & efficient cause you can have the db do it for you. Take a look at the javadocs for IBasicTableModel http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4/tapestry-contrib/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry/contrib/table/model/IBasicTableModel.html When getCurrentPageRows is called, it includes a sortColumn and a sortOrder parameter... make your implementation use it. Values for sortOrder are ITableSortingState.SORT_ASCENDING and SORT_DESCENDING
- Why can't you display links in the table rows? In the Table component, are you using the source and columns parameters ? From http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4/tapestry-contrib/ComponentReference/Table.html : ' If defined, a Block with a name that starts with the column id and ends with /ColumnValue/ will be used to render the column values. Similarly, a Block with a name that starts with the column id and ends with /ColumnHeader/ will be used to render the column headers.' If you define those Blocks, you can override how each cell renders itself.
