great thing...
Is there any documentation on that as well? Sean will not be pleased that the component didn't wander into the sandbox first ;)
By the way: I finally got a chance to very carefully look at the datatable implementation you provided, and I am very impressed by the work you did. The code is much cleaner now and everything works well with my existing applications. In German: "hut ab!" ;)

Martin

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.

Mathias
