Getting table editing to work when colspan=0 and/or rowspan=0 depends on fix for 24880
Depends on: 24880
I'm setting the keyword to beta1 -- however, not all of this needs to be in for beta -- functions such as join and split can be done in m15/m16
Keywords: beta1
Whiteboard: [PDT-]
If parts of table editing will not be implemented for Beta 1, let's remove any UI that might be in place. Beta 1 UI should be simple and all functional.

just adding here: need ability to change table cell color
Target Milestone: M14 → M15
Table dialog is not complete enough for M14. Menu items and toolbar access are disabled in case we can't do any more work on it for Beta1.
*** Bug 28147 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
We've got to get our essential UI features working. I was not able to finish the Table Dialog in time for M14 deadline. I did not want to rush in my current work. This really should be done for Beta1. The table dialog layout problems mentioned in bug 24880 were because of changes in the layout system that require rewriting of the dialog using new XUL box behavior that wasn't available until 2 days before the close of M14. We will never deliver a quality product if we can't develop our UI. If we can't checkin UI changes, bugs in the widgetes cannot be revealed. I could go on, but I will continue this in another forum tomorrow. Requesting consideration by PTD team.

Remove status whiteboard pdt- to get this back on the PDT's radar. Please make this bug PDT+ so that Charley can fix the following things: * add OK/Cancel buttons which are missing (no way to dismiss modal dialog!) * enable setting/removing of table borders * change column/row width/height values * span a cell for more than 1 column/row These are considered minimal necessary changes according to Bijal.

testing
PDT+ for the ok/cancel buttons. Also ok to solve by disabling the dialog if you prefer. PDT- for everything else for beta1 and dogfood.
Whiteboard: [PDT+] for ok/cancel problem only
It's not that simple. The OK/Cancel buttons are there, but the entire dialog is not layed out correctly, so the buttons are outside the dialog window. The work requires rewriting the entire dialog to use boxes, not tables, as I mentioned above.
What has been decided? Are we rewriting the dialog?
Do you plan to fix "table select row"? It was reported as a problem in the bug-o-rama.
The table dialog should not have been used at all in the bug-o-rama. It was an extremely preliminary version. I'm working on it right now and should be ready by 2/21.
removing PDT+ and beta1 keyword; move to M16 (post-beta1)

Clearing beta1 and PDT- for work we know will be after beta1

Adding PDT- for dogfood. Does not need an immediate fix.

Getting close, but still work to do in Table Dialog.
Moving to next milestone

All core table editing is completed. The table dialog is not, but this is a much better known problem and, of course, must be finished. The dialog exists, but needs some xul tweaking. The JS needs to be finished to set all the table attributes correctly. Should we separate the dialog work into a separate bug or just changed summary on this (bugs on table editing behavior can be files separately, of course).

M16 has been out for a while now, these bugs target milestones need to be updated.

Adding myself to cc: list.
added fix by date in status
Whiteboard: [nsbeta2+] → [nsbeta2+][8/2]
All functionality should work now. Only known problem is that we can't insert a <caption> element. I'll file a separate bug for that problem, which shouldn't hold up nsbeta2.

table props doesn't come up...using 7/12 build.

it does come up if you click on Table button on toolbar...just doesn't come up from Table | Table Properties menu item.
Let's just close this bug, intended to track major table dialog work. If there are remaining problems, file new bugs on those issues. I tried to investigate the problem of "Properties" not working from the Table menu, but too many assertions are getting in the way. I'll continue investigating when I return from vacation (8/1/00).

The launching from the Table menu (Table Properties item) is covered by bug 45756. It also doesn't come up from the context menu because it's not implemented yet (bug 43307). It does work if you put caret in a table and click on the table toolbar button, or use the "Cell Properties" item which should show in the Format menu. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 45756 ***
