Re: Table Output Ordering
Thanks Eightyseven. That seems to be exactly what I was looking for. Nice to see the wiki updated. The last time I grabbed the pagination helper was back in November. Looks like it has been updated QUITE a bit since then. Trying to get back to see the new stuff. Like the event selectors I found to consolidate your AJAX calling and make the code more clean and much more degradable.

Hi Troy, Try this> http://wiki.cakephp.org/tutorials:pagination It seems to me it does exactly what you are asking ;) (My site is currently offline, so no live examples at the time of posting).

Re: Table Output Ordering
Don't get hung up on it being AJAX. It will eventually be AJAX. But I want it to work straight up without AJAX as well. I want it to function without being a sortable AJAX grid. I was thinking what if I used one of the before calls to manipulate the query. Then to also use a helper for the views to call them to put in the sorting links automatically as well. Looking at the API I am thinking this should work in app_model.php as a beforeFind(). Now, the question that comes from that is if I set a variable in the $this->data array in each method would that be accesible in the beforeFind to check if set and append to the ORDER in the queryData?? So maybe I can't make a plugin out of it, but I can achieve my goal of having one set of coding instructions to use over and over and simplify debugging. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: Table Output Ordering
I have done something similar using a sortable grid via AJAX calls. Mine is implemented using the Yahoo! User Interface libraries instead of the built-in ones. I was having trouble using the Prototype/Scriptaculous helpers and getting stuff to work properly in IE. I have plans to do up a tutorial on what I did, but time is always short that kind of thing. ;) I don't know if you could do up a generic plugin or something, as most AJAX stuff is custom work anyway.

Table Output Ordering
I have many instances in my application where the output is shown in tables. What I want to do is allow the user to order the table based on any of the columns. The first time they click it would sort ASC, the next time DESC, or have an Up arrow and Down arrow to sort each way. Now, I could hardcode this in, but it would be hours of retyping the same thing and if there was a bug I have to distribute to all the code blocks. I am wanting to create one centralized solution for this that can be attached to any table output. Basically create a query then run the query thru a method, then go to the findAll. Now, what is the best way to approach this? Should I make a component? Should I make it a plugin? Also, what is the most efficient way to pass the sorting from the view back to the method? Utlimately it will be done via AJAX. Ideally it would keep the sorting you have and apply more. So, you could do a sort on last name, then sort on first name and it wouldn't just apply the next one. Thanks and I am very happy to be working in CakePHP again. Good job developers I am still here. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
