That's nice, but browsing end editing tables is such a common task that there should be a way to generate the whole thing, not only links. Justin's DB_DataObject_Formbuilder_Frontend is what I was looking for. I was wrong about Pager though, I'll correct myself : Pager does not generate enough HTML ;)
sorry, but I think that Pager already does more than it should do. The PEAR repository is meant to be a collection of task-specific components, not a rep of do-it-all packages.
You're right, it shouldn't do more. I'm actually looking for a package that does more, possibly encapsulating Pager. Or something that connects to Pager, etc...
You may find the missing piece of what you're trying to achive in one of the HTML_* packages.
I actually looked thoroughly in the HTML* section before posting in here. And, it seems like the "piece" I couldn't find is Structures_Datagrid, which stands in the Structures section. Maybe that cross-linking some packages to different sections would help people like me finding their way... Like a "related links" thingy. Or maybe a "Renderers" section. -- og
