Scripting for specific cell in a table

[abhijeetk882181]

Hi All,

   I am displaying a table which contains subtotals and grand-total and this table is coming as an XML file from a Java program directly.

The exact cells in a row which contains subtotal text and grand total text have to be enclosed with a border as shown below:-

I was able to achieve it using this code

if (this.rawValue == "Sub-Total:" || this.rawValue == "Grand Total:") {

   this.font.weight = "bold";

   this.border.getElement("edge",0).presence = "visible";

   this.border.getElement("edge",1).presence = "invisible";

   this.border.getElement("edge",2).presence = "visible";

   this.border.getElement("edge",3).presence = "invisible";

}

The issue is the subsequent cell which contains the subtotal and grand total value also has to be enclosed with a border similarly. But I am not able to achieve this functionality. Kindly suggest a solution.

You can set the borders of the surrounding row instead of the cells.

var oThis = this,
    oParent = oThis.parent;
if (oThis.rawValue.match(/^(Sub-Total:|Grand Total:)$/g)) {
  oThis.font.weight = "bold";
  oParent.border.getElement("edge",0).presence = "visible";
  oParent.border.getElement("edge",1).presence = "invisible";
  oParent.border.getElement("edge",2).presence = "visible";
  oParent.border.getElement("edge",3).presence = "invisible";
}

If you only want set the borders of specific cells on each row you can do this the following way:

var oThis = this,
    oParent = oThis.parent; 
if (oThis.rawValue.match(/^(Sub-Total:|Grand Total:)$/g)) {
   oThis.font.weight = "bold";
   // Modify cell named "Cell1"
   oParent.Cell1.border.getElement("edge",0).presence = "visible";
   oParent.Cell1.border.getElement("edge",1).presence = "invisible";
   oParent.Cell1.border.getElement("edge",2).presence = "visible";
   oParent.Cell1.border.getElement("edge",3).presence = "invisible";
   // Modify cell named "Cell3"
   oParent.Cell3.border.getElement("edge",0).presence = "visible";
   oParent.Cell3.border.getElement("edge",1).presence = "invisible";
   oParent.Cell3.border.getElement("edge",2).presence = "visible";
   oParent.Cell3.border.getElement("edge",3).presence = "invisible";
}
