Re: Can I disable sorting in Structures::Datagrid?

Awesome, I'll give it a try. Another feature that would be nice (and it might already be possible) is the ability to easily override the default sort direction for each column. I'll do this in the custom header of course, but it might be a feature to consider. While I'm at it, I'll suggest another feature.. the ability to specify a "then by" column to sort by. I.e, the equivalent of ORDER BY columnA, columnB in SQL. I haven't dug into the DataGrid code enough to see how everything works, so perhaps I have just missed a currently existing way to do this or maybe it would be too difficult or outside the scope of the project. Anyway, it's a great library as it is and I really like using it.. it's lightning fast for one thing.

Hi Bryan,We have rewritten most of the rendering layer. It should be much easier for you to create a custom header with the current CVS :- subclass Structures_DataGrid_Renderer_HTMLTable- overload Structures_DataGrid_Renderer_HTMLTable::buildHeader()- attach your custom renderer with Structures_DataGrid::attachRenderer()We always test before comitting so you shouldn't have much trouble using the CVS.We should be releasing 0.7 in the next weeks.Regards,-- ogdondo wrote:> Thanks Olivier.

It appears I have to write my own header code to get this to work the way I want it to. Ideally there would be a method that could override the automatic sorting so that the table headers didn't get disabled. One of the reasons I wanted to use DataGrid was to avoid having to write the header code. > I think that the best way to do what you want (disable sorting but keep links) is to subclass the datasource driver and overload sort() with an empty method.Example:class MyDataSource extends Structures_DataGrid_DataSource_DB{ function sort($sortSpec,$sortDir) { }}$datasource = new MyDataSource();$datasource->bind($yourDBResult);$datagrid->bindDataSource($datasource);-- og> > _______________________________________________> No banners.
