mlreportgen.dom.TableHeaderEntry Class

Namespace: mlreportgen.dom
Superclasses: mlreportgen.dom.TableEntry

Entry in table header

Description

Specifies a table header entry.

This class is intended primarily to support HTML table creation. It is rendered in an HTML document as a th (table header cell) element. Use this element so you do not need to format a table header entry explicitly. TableHeaderEntry objects rely on the browser to render the header entry appropriately. For Microsoft^® Word and PDF output, TableHeaderEntry behaves the same as TableEntry.

The mlreportgen.dom.TableHeaderEntry class is a handle class.

Creation

Description

entryObj = TableHeaderEntry() creates an empty table header entry.
