problem with columnClasses

[hrbaer]

Hi,

I'm having a table (width="100%") with 6 columns. Each column should have the same size. [Same size is relative easy to achive. Just write one columnClass and place it in the columnClass-attribute of the panelGrid. But is there a posibility to get the column width dynamicly? Because If I'm having a table with 4,5 or 7 columns I don't want to specify each time another columnClass!?!]
And below this table I'm having another table with only 2 columns. But the first column in the second table should have the same size like the columns in the first table. Ideally the second column should have the widht like "*".

Thats what I'm thinking of:
(Table 1)
|Column1|Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6|
|Column1|Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6|
|Column1|Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6|
(Table 2)
|Column1|Column2 |

Any ideas?

Sorry, this is the right format:

(Table 2)
|Column1|Column2........................................................|

For each column you can use width property with datamodel binding..
<rich:dataTable var="DATA_ROW"....>
<rich:column ...width="#{DATA_ROW.colwidth}">

colwidth is a field of your data model, and there you can set a width so that width will be set at runtime dynamically

Great! Thank you very much!

And just another question to my example:
First table: 6 columns
Second table 2 columns

If I want to combine those 2 tables is there a possibility to put something like colspan to my second table?

I just know how to put more cells into on with the panelGroup-attribute, but what I need is the other way around... any solution for this problem?

" to combine those 2 tables" means??

your stucture is ..

Thats what I'm thinking of:
(Table 1)
|Column1|Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6|
|Column1|Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6|
|Column1|Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6|
(Table 2)
|Column1|Column2........................................................|

for second table, in Column2 you want to put all the cell like of table 1 "Column2|Column3|Column4|Column5|Column6" with in a single colum header??

for table 2 if its a single cell then give the width like

table 2 -Column2 = width of table 1 Column2+Column3+Column4+Column5+Column6

if you want multi cell in a single column,

use panel group and put <h:outputText > with the required data binding

you can use colspan if you need it for design.. see the demo link
