HTML::TableTiler README File ============================ Description ----------- HTML::TableTiler uses a minimum HTML table as a tile to generate a complete HTML table from a bidimensional array of data. It can easily produce simple or complex graphic styled tables with minimum effort and maximum speed. Think about the table tile as a sort of tile that automatically expands itself to contain the whole data. You can control the final look of a table by choosing either the HORIZONTAL and the VERTICAL tiling mode among: PULL, TILE and TRIM. The main advantages to use it are: * automatic table generation Pass only a bidimensional array of data to generate a complete HTML table. No worry to decide in advance the quantity of cells (or rows) in the table. * complex graphic patterns generation without coding Just prepare a simple table tile in your preferred WYSIWYG HTML editor and let the module do the job for you. * simple to maintain You can indipendently change the table tile or the code, and everything will go as you would expect.
