Re: JSF/EGL datatable positioning question

From: Aaron Bartell

If you can figure out how to do it in JSF, then I can probably help do

it in EGL, although I haven't tried it.

Here is how I do it with JSF. Pay particular attention to the firstResult
portion. Any idea how we could do this in EGL? BTW, I have 2hrs left on
my download of RAD_V7.


--userlist.jsp-- (note dataTable attributes value, rows, first):
<h:panelGroup>
<x:dataTable id="list1" styleClass="table" headerClass="table_header"
var="user"
value="#{UserCtl.userListDataModel}" preserveDataModel="true"
rowClasses="row1,row2"
rows="#{UserCtl.perPage}" first="#{UserCtl.firstResult}">

The only difference between what you're writing and what EGL creates is the
fact that EGL uses the Extended Data Table from IBM's Java Widget Library.
The tag (hx:dataTableEx) has a first attribute, which, while I haven't used
it, should do the same thing the first attribute does for x:dataTable.

Here's documentation on the dataTableEx tag:
