Generate datatable without id and style class on td element

iorfix Nov 28, 2008 11:10 AM

Hi,
I have some tables with a large number of columns (almost all with numeric values) and their rendering is slow since the generated HTML is big (about 100KB for a table with 10 rows), and the network connection speed is not very fast.
I'd like to produce a smaller HTML table, with td element without any id and style information. Basically, from:

<td class="dr-table-cell rich-table-cell centered_column" id="j_id86:tp:tf:d2:tableSF:0:j_id164">0</td>

<td>0</td>

However, I'd like to continue to use rich:dataTable component, since I need its sorting features, data scroller and so on.
Is there a way to achieve this result?
Thank you,
Dario

Hi,

I'm also interested with this feature.
Activate compression on the apache server can resolve the size problem but i notice that the huge number of IDs cause important performance problem under Internet Explorer.

Is there a way to reduce the number of IDs ?

Thank you,
Frederic

Hello,

No. IDs are necessary for back compatibility.

And the ids are very goods compressed when using gzip.
