New It's all in the name
Had they the foresight to call it "GridLayoutManager" instead of "Table", all would have been quite impressed. But to call it Table means that it confuses the model and viewer aspects.

New yeah, that's what I'll do...
I'll create a JS class called GridLayoutManager, it'll take a layout specification and generate XML to dynamically create divs in a tabular canvas. let's see we'd need rows, columns, cells, border, gutters, headers, footers, captions, dynamically changeable actions, that should do it... it would be better than <table>, this would be enterprise....
Have fun,
Carl Forde
