I haven't seen the necessity for a complex plugin just for table
views up to now. Normally it's pretty simple to make dynamic tables
just using HTML5 and jQuery. For example, see the file selector
widget I created. That uses a table to display the file entries,
it's dynamic, sortable & responsive with just a few lines of
code.<br>
<br>
DataTables adds a lot of features and simplifies manipulations of
the data. I like the automatic responsive drilldown shown here:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://datatables.net/extensions/responsive/examples/styling/bootstrap.html">https://datatables.net/extensions/responsive/examples/styling/bootstrap.html</a><br>
<br>
It's got some weight of course (about half of the charts lib with
just the most basic extensions), so we would add it as an optional
asset. On a first look it will need some customization for us, as it
uses the glyphicons for the bootstrap 3 variant, which we don't
include for size reasons.<br>
<br>
What do others think? And which of the extensions should be
included?<br>
<br>
Overall, the UI as drafted shouldn't be hard to implement. I'll see
if I can create a first version, but probably won't have the time
before next weekend.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Michael<br>

<div class="">I am trying to see how hard it would be to do a web

<div class="">The controls are just a set of controls - things
that bring up dialogs for more information or perform actions.
Like start/stop RE, switch modes, manipulate DBC files, etc.
Left justified in the frame, and perhaps 10% of the width.
Height can dynamically adjust with the text content.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The Status, Info, and Extra panes are just a
dynamically updated text panes. Main code needs to be able to
send text here and have it shown in the appropriate pane. Right
justified in the frame and perhaps 30% of the width. Height can
dynamically adjust with the text content.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The TABLE is a table. Probably 5 columns by many
rows (anywhere from 20 to 200 or so). Either paged, scrolling,
or just very tall. Paged is probably preferable. Would need a
simple mechanism to dynamically add/update a row (identified by
‘key’ column and in sorted order), presumably using the web
socket. Also need something to be able to dynamically clear the
entire table. The RETOOLS code would use this to update the
table in realtime (presumably over a web socket). It would be
good if the table could do things like search filtering of
displayed rows, column sorting, etc (all client side - something
like <a href="http://datatables.net" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">datatables.net</a>).</div>

<div class="">The idea is to be able to show the key, records, ms,
last, and ascii dump in the main table. Then, clicking on a row
would show the statistics for that message in the Info pane, and
DBC signals in the Extra pane.</div>

<div class="">I can handle the RETOOLS side, but the javascript is
beyond me. I also had a look at the ovms web server framework,
