It took some more time but now tomahawk has a new component called
x:column which can be used instead of h:column.
You can define dir, lang, title, style, styleclass, onclick, ondbclick,
onmouseover, onmouseout, onmousedown, onmouseup, onmousemove,
onkeypress, onkeydown and onkeyup for each cell, header and footer cells.
It will be available in the next nightly.
Regards,
Mathias

Sounds awesome! Where will you be committing it to? Sandbox or Tomahawk?

I´ve create a special column component which allows you to define
different styles and more for the cells.
It just needs some testing. I think I will have commited it tomorrow.
Best Regards,

Subject: Re: Variable cell style classes in data table
Alright, well my back is sort of up against a wall now. I had
thought I could figure out an alternative for now but I was wrong. I
had thought that wrapping the column data in a div and setting the
width and height to fill the cell would allow me to change the
background color on a per cell basis. And it does, but with a big
but. Apparently you can't use vertical alignment on block level
elements. So, rather than the text being centered vertically and
horizontally as it needs to be, it's up at the top of the cell.
We've tried several workarounds, none of which seem to work quite right.
So, I'm back to needing to set table cell style classes based on the
content of the cell. I looked at maybe modifying the data table so
that the column classes attribute could be a list of EL statements
that get interpreted when each cell is rendered, but they are
interpreted instead when the table itself is created it looks like,
so that's out. I'm not sure what could be the best way to do it now,
maybe create a new facet type named "style" or "styleClass" for the
column component.
This is my first bout at trying to create custom components, so I'm
not sure what that would involve, but I'm more than willing to give
it a shot if someone could maybe give me some advice.
Thanks,
Rich

I ended up writing a Lookup-image component. Nothing complicated.
hope this helps

PS: I'll be offline for a week! But after august 2nd i can scetch
up a component that does this trick, if you can wait till then.
Sounds good. I can probably figure something out until
then. Thanks
a ton.

Subject: Variable cell style classes in data table
Hey everyone,
I've got a report that I'm displaying with <h:dataTable>.
Depending
on the value to be displayed the background color of the
cell should
be a different shade. So for low values, it'd be like a
really light
yellow, for high values it'd be a much darker yellow, etc.
Any ideas
on how I can accomplish this with MyFaces?
I had sort of hoped that something like the following would work:
<h:column styleClass="#{reportHandler.styleClass}">
But, as I found out, styleClass isn't a valid attribute for the
<h:column> element.
Any ideas? Am I stuck rendering this sucker with plain
old JSP and
JSTL?
Thanks,
Rich
