Use tfoot tag in Drupal for summary/totals in tables
The Drupal 6 theme_table function is missing the ability to use tfoot tag for totals etc. This become hard when you add a jQuery table sorter and the totals start jumping around with the other rows. I made my own table function to get around this problem in Drupal 6. AS for now not even Druapl 7 have this feature.
You can implement this as your own theme_hook but I think it's not necessary.
<?php
/**
* Replacement of Drupal theme function allowing tfooter
*
* @param unknown_type $header
* @param unknown_type $footer
* @param unknown_type $rows
* @param unknown_type $attributes
* @param unknown_type $caption
* @return unknown
*/
function mymodule_theme_table($header, $footer = NULL, $rows, $attributes = array(), $caption = NULL) {
// Add sticky headers, if applicable.
if (count($header)) {
drupal_add_js('misc/tableheader.js');
// Add 'sticky-enabled' class to the table to identify it for JS.
// This is needed to target tables constructed by this function.
$attributes['class'] = empty($attributes['class']) ? 'sticky-enabled' : ($attributes['class'] .' sticky-enabled');
}
$output = '<table'. drupal_attributes($attributes) .">\n";
if (isset($caption)) {
$output .= '<caption>'. $caption ."</caption>\n";
}
// Format the table header:
if (count($header)) {
$ts = tablesort_init($header);
// HTML requires that the thead tag has tr tags in it followed by tbody
// tags. Using ternary operator to check and see if we have any rows.
$output .= (count($rows) ? ' <thead><tr>' : ' <tr>');
foreach ($header as $cell) {
$cell = tablesort_header($cell, $header, $ts);
$output .= _theme_table_cell($cell, TRUE);
}
// Using ternary operator to close the tags based on whether or not there are rows
$output .= (count($rows) ? " </tr></thead>\n" : "</tr>\n");
}
else {
$ts = array();
}
if (count($footer)) {
// HTML requires that the tfoot tag has tr tags in it followed by tbody
// tags. Using ternary operator to check and see if we have any rows.
$output .= (count($rows) ? ' <tfoot><tr>' : ' <tr>');
$i = 0;
foreach ($footer as $cell) {
$cell = tablesort_cell($cell, $footer, $ts, $i++);
$output .= _theme_table_cell($cell);
}
// Using ternary operator to close the tags based on whether or not there are rows
$output .= (count($rows) ? " </tr></tfoot>\n" : "</tr>\n");
}
// Format the table rows:
if (count($rows)) {
$output .= "<tbody>\n";
$flip = array('even' => 'odd', 'odd' => 'even');
$class = 'even';
foreach ($rows as $number => $row) {
$attributes = array();
// Check if we're dealing with a simple or complex row
if (isset($row['data'])) {
foreach ($row as $key => $value) {
if ($key == 'data') {
$cells = $value;
}
else {
$attributes[$key] = $value;
}
}
}
else {
$cells = $row;
}
if (count($cells)) {
// Add odd/even class
$class = $flip[$class];
if (isset($attributes['class'])) {
$attributes['class'] .= ' '. $class;
}
else {
$attributes['class'] = $class;
}
// Build row
$output .= ' <tr'. drupal_attributes($attributes) .'>';
$i = 0;
foreach ($cells as $cell) {
$cell = tablesort_cell($cell, $header, $ts, $i++);
$output .= _theme_table_cell($cell);
}
$output .= " </tr>\n";
}
}
$output .= "</tbody>\n";
}
$output .= "</table>\n";
return $output;
}
?>
And this is how I implement it
<?php
//instead of:
//$out .= theme('table', $tableHeaders, $tableRows, $attributes = array('class' => 'team-projects tablesorter', 'id' => 'team-projects-table'));
$out .= mymodule_theme_table($tableHeaders, $sum_row, $tableRows, $attributes = array('class' => 'team-projects tablesorter', 'id' => 'team-projects-table'));
?>
