%EDITTABLE
macro)
and you can use it to edit the entire table, or just one row at a time.
An %EDITTABLE{...}%
in the topic will be associated with the next table
in the topic. If there is no existing table, or another
%EDITTABLE{...}%
is seen before the next table, then a new table will
be created.
Parameters:
format
- The format of the cells in a row of the table. The format is defined like a table row, where the cell data specify the type for each cell. For example, format="| text,16 | label |"
. Cells can be any of the following types: text, <size>, <initial value>
Simple text field. Initial value is optional.
textarea, <rows>x<columns>, <initial value>
Multirow text box. Initial value is optional.
select, <size>, <option 1>, <option 2>, etc
Select one from a list of choices.
radio, <size>, <option 1>, <option 2>,
etc. Radio buttons. size
indicates the number of buttons per line in edit mode.
checkbox, <size>, <option 1>, <option 2>, etc
Checkboxes. size
indicates the number of buttons per line in edit mode.
label, 0, <label text>
Fixed label.
row
The row number, automatically worked out.
date, <size>, <initial value>, <DHTML date format>
Date. Initial value and date format are both optional.
changerows
- Rows can be added and removed if "on"
. Rows can be added but not removed if "add"
. Defaults to the value of the preference CHANGEROWS
, or "on"
if it isn't set.
disable
- By default, the plugin shows both full table and individual row editing controls. You can choose to disable one or both of these modes using the disable
parameter, by setting it to row
or full
(or row,full
to disable all editing and just leave sorting). If full table editing is disabled, but changerows
is on
, then the (edit table) button will be replaced with a (add row) button. Defaults to the value of the preference EDITROWPLUGIN_DISABLE
, or none
if it isn't set.
buttons
- set to left
or right
(the default) to position edit controls in the first or last columns in the table. buttons="right"
may be required if you are using other plugins that expect a certain column order, such as TablePlugin.
quietsave
- Quiet Save button is shown if "on"
. Defaults to the value of the preference QUIETSAVE
, or off
if it isn't set.
include
- Name of another topic defining the EDITTABLE parameters. The first %EDITTABLE% in the topic is used. This is useful if you have many topics with the same table format and you want to update the format in one place.
headerrows
- Number of rows to treat as headers. Header rows are not editable, and will not be sorted. headerislabel
is also supported for EditTablePlugin compatibility (equivalent to headerrows="1"
)
header
- Specify the single-row header format of a new table. For example, "|*Food*|*Drink*|"
. Provided to allow you to create a new table in a document, and to have a header that is truly readonly. If header
is defined on an empty table then a header row will be automatically created.header
nor headerrows
is given, but there are existing headers in the table (rows in which every column is bold) then those rows will automatically be taken as the table header.
footerrows
- Number of rows to treat as footers. Footer rows are not editable and will not be sorted.
orientrowedit
- unique to EditRowPlugin, this parameter controls the orientation of a row when it is being edited. It can be set to horizontal
(the default) or vertical
, which will present the columns of the row as rows in the editor. This makes editing very wide tables much easier. Has no effect in whole table editing mode.
helptopic
Topic name containing help text shown when editing a table. The %STARTINCLUDE% and %STOPINCLUDE% markers can be used in the topic to specify what is shown. Note that newlines are removed from the included text so the that text can be used inside a table.
js
gives local, per-table control over the EDITROWPLUGIN_JS
preference described below.
changerows
and quietsave
. %EDITCELL{ "type, ..." }%
macro at the end of the cell content. This is useful to override the per column %EDITTABLE{ format="..." }%
settings, or to create tables with key/value rows. All edit field types of the format="..."
parameter are supported. For example, to define a text field, type: | cell content %EDITCELL{ "text, 20" }% |
Note: The %EDITCELL{}%
macro cannot be used by itself; place an %EDITTABLE{ }%
macro at the beginning of a table where you want to use %EDITCELL{ }%
macros.

script is listed in the {AuthScripts}
admin setting.
QUIETSAVE |
Gives a default value for the quietsave parameter. Default is off . |
CHANGEROWS |
Gives a default value for the changerows parameter. Default is on . |
EDITROWPLUGIN_JS |
Usually the plugin expects to be able to use Javascript to generate controls. However sometimes users disable Javascript in the browser, so the plugin also generates a minimal set of fallback controls to give non-JS access to the main features, even if Javascript is disabled. You can use this preference to control whether Javascript is preferred, ignored, or assumed when generating the controls.
js parameter to the EDITTABLE macro. |
EDITROWPLUGIN_DISABLE |
Set to on to disable the plugin. Default is off . |
configure
(expert) setting that allows you to change the name of the macro used to carry table editor parameters. This is usually EDITTABLE
but can be changed to help work around problems with other plugins.
cd /path/to/foswiki perl tools/extension_installer <NameOfExtension> installIf you have any problems, or if the extension isn't available in
configure
, then you can still install manually from the command-line. See https://foswiki.org/Support/ManuallyInstallingExtensions for more help.
get
and save
. The get
handler can be used to retrieve the contents of
a table. Parameters are: erp_topic
the web.wikiname of the topic
erp_table
the table (numbered from 1)
erp_row
- the row (numbered from 1)
erp_col
- the column (numbered from 1)
erp_row
and erp_col
parameters. If neither is given, the entire table is returned. If only erp_row
is given, just that row will be returned, etc. The data is returned in JSON format.
For example, a URI to retrieve column 2 from the table EDITTABLE_1
from this topic would look like this:
https://sed-wiki.inrialpes.fr/bin/rest/EditRowPlugin/get?erp_topic=System.EditRowPlugin;erp_table=EDITTABLE_1;erp_col=2
The save
handler is used to save cells, and accepts the following parameters: erp_topic
the web.wikiname of the topic to be changed
erp_table
the table to be changed (numbered from 1)
erp_row
- the row to be changed (numbered from 1, or -1 for the whole table)
saveRowCmd.x
- if nonzero, this is a save
saveRowQuietlyCmd.x
- if nonzero, this is a quietsave
upRowCmd.x
- if nonzero, this is a row move
downRowCmd.x
- if nonzero, this is a row move
deleteRowCmd.x
- if nonzero, this is a row deletion
cancelCmd.x
- if nonzero, this is a cancel
noredirect
- if set, suppresses the redirect and gets a status code instead
erp_<table>_<row>_<column>
editbutton
parameter,
initsort
parameter, it is likely to cause great confusion, as the table will be
re-sorted each time a row is opened for edit, and when the table is edited in full table
mode.
All parameters to an applicable %TABLE
macro are respected. If the same setting is repeated in the EDITTABLE tag, then that takes precedence even if the TABLE tag is later in the text.
