Issue with Column Widths #58

Open getcatalyzed opened 12 years ago

getcatalyzed commented 12 years ago

It seems that the tablefilter scripts sets a fixed minimum width to the columns. Is there any way to turn this off? My table populates dynamically, and with table-layout set to auto the column widths automatically adjust to fit the content. It seems like tablefilter sets the table-layout to fixed where all columns are equal widths.

The table filter does not change the table-layout, it also does not set the cell width. What it does do is add a row of filters (select or input). These are set to be of width:95%.
It may be this that is causing issues. Perhaps you can add some sample code to show me this error?

I'm having the same issue. Why do you set a width at all? Can you provide a switch to turn that off?

To recreate the issue create any table with dynamic width cells, fill it with variable-width content, and then run your tablefilter script. tablefilter makes all the columns the same width based on the longest value in any column. Annoying.
