read csv-data and put it in an array

[Perlchamp]

but this does not work yet:

		    var bodyTDimage = document.createElement("td");
		    bodyTDimage.className = "td-image";
		    bodyTDimage.id = "birthday-td-image";
		    if (birthday.charAt(0) === "0") {
			birthday = birthday.replace("0","");
			birthday = birthday.substring(0,1);
		    }
		    bodyTDimage.innerHTML = birthday.substring(0,2);

the value will not displayed, but i will find a way. my code yet is far away from a smart code :-))

[Perlchamp]

this is the status at the moment :

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp cool… do you want ages aligned?

[Perlchamp]

yes, of course, sir …

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp need to specify width of td

By default, a browser will adjust table columns to fit the contents of the table. However, if you want to control the width of each column, you can do so by adjusting the width of each or of a single row.

if you had th, then you could see the length of the names as they go by, and then adjust the th width before sending the content to MM…

[Perlchamp]

width:27px; is placed in css
but this:

//bodyTDimage.id = "birthday-td-image";

works. i really have to write html-text in the module-file ?

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp eh? commenting out a line?

have a th is the same as what you have document.createElement(“th”)

[Perlchamp]

wrong line, moment:

//bodyTDimage.className = "td-image";

this works, but unformatted, of course

i don’t like things like:
innerHTLM = tags, tags, tags …

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp eh? where is that?

@Perlchamp fiddling with it here… technically you are supposed to have a text element as a child of the td

< table>
   < tr>
      < td> value < /td>

var n = document.createTextNode(value);

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp

			    var bodyTR = document.createElement("tr");
			   // bodyTR.className = "tr-body";
			    bodyTR.id = "birthday-tr-body";
			    tBody.appendChild(bodyTR);		    

			    var bodyTDimage = document.createElement("td");
			   // bodyTDimage.className = "td-image";
			    bodyTDimage.id = "birthday-td-image";
			   // bodyTDimage.innerHTML = birthday;
			    bodyTR.appendChild(bodyTDimage);
			    bodyTDimage.appendChild(document.createTextNode(birthday));

			    var bodyTD = document.createElement("td");
			   // bodyTD.className = "td-body";
			    bodyTD.id = "birthday-td-body";
			   // bodyTD.innerTEXT = person.name ;
				bodyTD.appendChild(document.createTextNode(person.name));
			    bodyTR.appendChild(bodyTD);		
			     

				var ageTD = document.createElement("td");
			   // bodyTD.className = "td-body";
			    ageTD.id = "birthday-td-age";
			    //ageTD.innerTEXT = person.age ;	 
			    ageTD.appendChild(document.createTextNode(person.age)); 
			    bodyTR.appendChild(ageTD);		

and set the class for the text element

[Perlchamp]

you were too fast !!
to your information:
table needs a header (thead, tr, th) and a footer (tfoot, tr, td), and, of
course a boda (tbody, tr, td), my cose, where a put html-tags in the table and text without variable works fine.
but later, if i should dissapointed, i will try this.

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp >where a put html-tags in the table

its exactly the same as writing the html

they don’t NEED a thead/tfoot, these are optional

you could create a big text string of the html < table>… < /table>
and then assign that text string to the wrapper div innerHTML.

same result…

[sdetweil]

@sdetweil when I had a big pile of html objects to create I wrote a little routine to hide the 4 lines per object

createEl(type, id, class, parent){
   var el = document.createElement(type)
   el.id=id
   if(class) 
     el.classname=class
   parent.addChild(el)
   return el
},

then to use

    var table= this.createEl('table', "birthday-tbody", null , wrapper)
            etc
            etc

[Perlchamp]

in the moment you’re too fast for me …
this code is from the test-module:

    getDom: function() {
	var wrapper = document.createElement("div");


	if ((moment() > this.midnight) || (!this.loaded)) {

	    wrapper.className = 'table';

	    var tHeader = document.createElement("thead");
	    tHeader.className = "thead";

	    var headerTR = document.createElement("tr");
	    headerTR.className = "tr-head";

	    var headerTH = document.createElement("th");
	    headerTH.colSpan = "2";
	    headerTH.scope = "col";
	    headerTH.className = "th-head";
	    headerTH.id = "birthday-th-head";
	    headerTH.innerHTML = this.translate(this.config.title);
	    headerTR.appendChild(headerTH);

	    footerTR.appendChild(footerTD);

	    wrapper.appendChild(tFooter);
			
	    // Create TBODY section with day names
	    var eintraege = 3;
	    for (var i=1; i<=eintraege; i++) {
		var tBody = document.createElement("tBody");
		tBody.className = "tbody";
		tBody.id = "birthday-tbody";

		var bodyTR = document.createElement("tr");
		bodyTR.className = "tr-body";
		bodyTR.id = "birthday-tr-body";

		var bodyTDimage = document.createElement("td");
		bodyTDimage.className = "td-image";
		bodyTDimage.id = "birthday-td-image";

		bodyTD.innerHTML = "Bettina Zimmermann&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"age-span\">46</span></br>Frank Dubiel&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"age-span\">54</span></br>Jürgen Gruse&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"age-span\">52</span>";

/*

	    this.loaded = true;
	    return wrapper;

    },

and looks like :

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp ok, so you WANT a title, header and footer…

still no different than an actual table in all html
by using document.creatElement and appendChild() there are no close tags to create

a td is a closed thing you add text to a td…

with my little helper routine, you write exactly what you would have written in html
and can indent/outdent to match for readability

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp maybe a nunjuks template , but its the same work to create the template the generate the content
the template has to have all the same stuff you are doing, including the loop part

@Perlchamp said in read csv-data and put it in an array:

sorry sam, but my code is displayed wrong ! what in hell …
the tbody section:

any < must have a space after it to display on the forum… no way to escape them yet…
no real work from site admin on problem
