> It would be good to provide a means to highlight (via
> CSS tags, ideally) the row on the table that has been
> selected.
> Ideally it would be good if the row selection (by clicking
> on a given row) would automatically do this highlighting,
> though I think that might be more interaction than would
> be needed by most table users.
> Also, I could see where developers would like facilities to
> select an entire row, entire column, or a specific cell.

> I suppose this could be implemented in a table decorator by

> paramId/paramProperty pair, and if they match, you could
> change the style for the row in question.
> - Maybe this functionality is also so generic that it should be
> included in the default tag implementation, e.g. with a
> styleClassSelectedRow="myStyleClass" parameter for the tag.
> I would also like access to this kind of functionality, and will
> look into it if I can spare the time...

> I have just finished making this functionality as a patch that
> we use in a project I am working on.
> Ideally this functionality should maybe have a parameter by
> it's own, but because I had little time available I had to
> integrate it in the decorator parameter.
> example:
> <display:table .... decorator="highlightSelectedRow,param" >
> The patch then matched the request parameters (already
> clicked link) with the links that are produced by the cells in
> the table. At the first match, the row in question is
> highlighted. This means that if multiple rows link to the same
> location, and not the first row containing this link is clicked,
> the wrong row is selected. This is not a problem in my
> application, but could be an issue for others...
> ...any way, I could send the patch to anyone interested.
