Simon, Just to let you know that if you collapse A::B before collapsing A, you get (I think) unexpected results. But thanks for posting a nice simple template and jquery example, I haven't used it before and may need/want to soon. cheers, Bob.

I wasn't making myself very clear there obviously :-) I think I meant that each column only has a relationship in it's row. There's no vertical relationship, unlike a timetable which has relationships in a vertical and horizontal direction. Lining columns up in your case is largely presentational. Not that there is anything wrong with that, it would be an ugly mess if they weren't. I don't think that a table is the only way to represent that data, unless you have particular accessibility concerns that require one. I'm not seeing anything in the html that suggests that though. I would start by putting the SBRD, results by version and pass bar into a div and floating it right. That will make them all line up against an enclosing div that's not as wide as the page. Then put the fail scores into a div and float it with some cunning margin jiggery pokery to hang it out on the right, outside of the containing div. The tricky part is making the SBRD div float just to the right of the longest module name. I can't think of a sensible way of doing that at the moment and am as ever deficient in tuits to work on it. It might not be possible but it probably is solvable and then you can use the tools that already exist for manipulating trees in Javascript. By the time you've flung enough divs at it to make it work, you'd probably rather have solved the problem of collapsing rows in a table instead :-) S.

Unfortunately every pre-existing Javascript thingy I've looked at assumes that I have a simple tree. I don't, I have a *table*, which has a hierarchy.

An easy (albeit hacky) way to do it would be when you're dumping the table to the page from your perl, for each nested level, generate a classname such as tree-depth-. Your javascript can parse that out and use that to determine nesting. To do it correctly, you're going to have to consider restructuring your markup somewhat. --James

To have tbodys inside a tbody would require another table. Then it won't work, because in the case of very large trees, I want the user to be able to collapse arbitrary sub-trees, which are nested. And putting another table in would reset all the column widths and screw up the display. -- David Cantrell | Bourgeois reactionary pig Fashion label: n: a liferaft for personalities which lack intrinsic buoyancy

I'm struggling to imagine what you mean here. Perhaps it would help if I show you what I've done so far (which doesn't work). This represents a simple dependency tree: this::module other::module yet::another::module Test::More + this::module blahblahblah + other::module blahblahblah + yet::another::module blahblahblah + Test::More blahblahblah The data in blahblahblah are several columns of a table. The data *must* be displayed as a table, and *must* work in any reasonable browser, including those that don't do CSS - although obviously I don't expect any fancy stuff like the expanding/collapsing thingy to work in such primitive browsers.

I want to add a Thingy to CPANdeps to let users collapse/expand portions of the dependency tree. How would one go about this?
