While thinking about this, I stumbled over some problems: When using the extra attributes, you have to decide on which element the attributes should be assigned: When for example calling displayTextRow() with some extra attributes, the class does not know, on which tag this attributes should be applied. To solve this problem, we would have to store the extra attributes in complex arrays like $attributes = array ("th" => array( "class" => "class1", "id" => "myid" ), "input" => array( "class" => "class2" ) .... ); . It isn't a big problem to implement something like this (at least I think so), but I'm not sure, if people would start using such a complex feature ... - Martin
