Some creative usage of Tapestry's Grid and Zone components, together with
a TextField, can already do the most part of what you're describing here.

Hi all!
I was wondering if there is something like GlazedLists List
transformations
for T5. In Spring richclient it is for example possible to have a table
filtered by multiple columns by typing in a textfield which is very neat
for
usecases where you have to narrow down a list/grid by several criteria
since
it leverages glazedlists internally.
For the few who may not know it: http://publicobject.com/glazedlists/
Imagine you have a grid of customers and a textfield where you can enter
customer number, zip code or name of the customer you look for. As you
type
the list and thus the grid gets filtered down until you have only a few
on
the screen and can select the appropriate entity.
The filtering works by case insensitive String.contains(), so if you for
example misheard a name on the phone while taking the order you can enter
only the start, the middle or the end of the name.
This combined with Ajax would make handling of large lists much easier
without having to resort to full text indexing or search forms.
But as far as I understood it, GlazedLists is tightly bound to Swing. So
my
question is, if there is something similar in the webapp world. If not it
would be a really really great addition.

Otho
