No, you haven't asked *this* question before. But a similar one that also could be solved by overloading the renderer.

However I cant get the buildRow to output anything.

The reason is that buildRow() isn't meant to output anything. It builds a row of a table, but does not output it. My suggestion was to do the following: Create a new class that extends the existing HTMLTable renderer of SDG, give it a short constructor, copy the buildRow() method from the renderer and modify this method to your needs. Basically, this should look like the following: class Structures_DataGrid_Renderer_HTMLTableColors

    extends Structures_DataGrid_Renderer_HTMLTable

{

    function Structures_DataGrid_Renderer_HTMLTableColors()
    {
        parent::Structures_DataGrid_Renderer_HTMLTable();
    }
    function buildRow()
    {
        // your modifications / additions to the buildRow()
        // method of the SDG_R_HTMLTable class as explained
        // in my first answer
    }

} And then, instead of

    $result = $datagrid->fill($table);

you would use something like

    $result = $datagrid->fill($table, null, 'HTMLTableColors');

There is no need to call buildRow() anywhere, SDG does this job for you. Regards, Mark -- http://www.markwiesemann.eu
