[cgiapp] Variable Number of Column in a Table

[Joshua Miller]

Yes, but it's not pretty...

 <TMPL_LOOP NAME=SQL_OUTPUT>
   <TMPL_IF NAME="__first__">
     <TR>
     <TMPL_LOOP NAME=COLS>
       <TH>Headers go here</TH>
     </TMPL_LOOP>
     </TR>
   </TMPL_IF>

   <TMPL_IF NAME="__odd__">
     <TR>
     <TMPL_LOOP NAME=COLS>
       <TD>Row of data in odd row color set</TD>
     </TMPL_LOOP>
     </TR>
   </TMPL_IF>

   <TMPL_UNLESS NAME="__odd__">
     <TR>
     <TMPL_LOOP NAME=COLS>
       <TD>Row of data in even row color set</TD>
     </TMPL_LOOP>
     </TR>
   </TMPL_UNLESS>
 </TMPL_LOOP>

$data = {
    SQL_OUTPUT => [
        { COLS => [ { CELLDATA => "blah" },
                    { CELLDATA => "blah" },
                    { CELLDATA => "blah" },
                  ] },
        { COLS => [ { CELLDATA => "blah" },
                    { CELLDATA => "blah" },
                    { CELLDATA => "blah" },
                  ] },
        ],
    };
