Hi,

Use the clearSelection() to uncheck and create a attribute of type boolean in the node you use as datasource for table and Set the attribute based on condition

Hi,

For disable the checkboxes,

you should create a boolean type attribute in context under the node which is bound to the table. The no.of boolean attributes belongs to that how many checkboxes you have in your table row.

And there is no property to change the background of the column.

For Table sorter,

in the SDN, from the "sample applications and tutorials" and you can get the list of samples and tutorials, find the sort functions. when you click this you can get a page to download the sample.

from that you will get zip file which contains "TableSorter.java". store it into your webdynpro project under a package.

Create an action bind it to the onAction property of the column. And also create one context attribute with type of TableSorter from the java native type. need not to bind it with any UI Element's property.

write the following code in that action part,

wdContext.currentContextElement().get<SortContextname>().sort(wdEvent,wdContext.node<Tablenode>());

in DoModifyView() write the following,

if (firstTime)

{

IWDTable table = (IWDTable) view.getElement("<TableID>");

wdContext.currentContextElement().set<SortContextname>( new TableSorter(table, wdThis.wdGet<SortingActionName>Action(), null));

}

this will help you.

Hi,

<i>how to change back ground color of a particular column</i>

Go through thread. Only helps if you are using NW04s.

<i>How to enable sort function for each column ?</i>

Search this forum with "TableSorter" as the query.
