Hello koha-devel, On the bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6086 Alex proposes to add a new jquery filter for tables, picnet.table.filter.min.js (An example of the filter is here: http://www.picnet.com.au/resources/tablefilter/demo.htm ) We already have some jquery plugins for table: * tablesorter = let you sort table columns. Widely used in Koha. * tablesorterPager = automatically paginate long tables. Used in admin section of Koha, and in readingrec * uiTableFilter = add a generic filter to tables. Used only in serials claims if i'm not mistaking. uiTableFilter and tablefilter achieve almost the same goal: * uiTableFilter propose just one filter, generic, outside of the table. You enter something, and any cell with the entered value is kept, others are hidden * tablefilter add a line to the table, just below column names (see the screenshot on bug 6086) the filter can be very detailled. It handles filters from a list, not only from an entered value. We have options: * those 2 plugins are not exactly the same, let's go with both (at the price of sometimes graphic inconsistencies or difficulties to choose one or the other plugin) * uiTableFilter is great, the other gives us too much detail, let's stick with uiTableFilter, don't add another table plugin ! * tablefilter is great, it's better to have a lot of details, it's easier to understand how it works (the uiTableFilter is outside the table, it's strange...) switch to tablefilter and remote uiTableFilter ! What do you think we should do ? Is there an other thing we should take care of ? Anyone knowing the killing-plugin-for-table we should use for sorting/filtering/doing everything on table ? Personally, I think I prefer a little bit tablefilter, I already had some usability questions from Owen about uiTableFilter used in a smart-rules patch we've submitted (and has not been applied yet) Depending on the conclusion, i'll QA the 6086 differently ;-) -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08
