As you can see in the code below, I am generating an HTML table with 4 columns. The first and second column have 1 row and the 3rd and 4th should have 5 rows.
I have tried using rowspan but cannot get it work and it gives weird output. Right now I am using a table element nested in the main table but I don't want to use that, I'd like to use rowspan
from dominate import tags as tags# import time, subprocess, os, datetime, zipfile, shutil
doc = dominate.document(title="whatever")
with doc:
tags.style("body{font-family:Helvetica}")
tags.style("h1{font-size:x-large}")
tags.style("h2{font-size:large}")
tags.style("table{border-collapse:collapse}")
tags.style("th{font-size:small;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px;background-color:#DDD}")
tags.style("td{font-size:small;text-align:center;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px}")
with tags.table():
with tags.thead():
tags.th("Test")
tags.th("Pass%")
tags.th("random")
tags.th("Bugs / Notes")
with tags.tbody():
with tags.tr():
tags.td("random")
tags.td("random", "%", style="font-size:small;text-align:center;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px;background-color:#66FF66")
with tags.td():
with tags.table(style = ""):
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.td():
with tags.table():
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr():
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
HTML_TMP = "/tmp/demo.html"
MAIL_TMP = "/tmp/demo.txt"
# save it to a file
with open(HTML_TMP, "w") as f:
f.write(str(doc))
Can you please tell me how to do this.
Your problem is with the HTML structure, I think. You want to remove the embedded tables from the main table and just give the first two cells in the first row the attribute rowspan="5". The below does this with minimal other changes to your code.
import dominate
from dominate import tags as tags# import time, subprocess, os, datetime, zipfile, shutil
doc = dominate.document(title="whatever")
with doc:
tags.style("body{font-family:Helvetica}")
tags.style("h1{font-size:x-large}")
tags.style("h2{font-size:large}")
tags.style("table{border-collapse:collapse}")
tags.style("th{font-size:small;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px;background-color:#DDD}")
tags.style("td{font-size:small;text-align:center;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px}")
with tags.table():
with tags.thead():
tags.th("Test")
tags.th("Pass%")
tags.th("random")
tags.th("Bugs / Notes")
with tags.tbody():
with tags.tr(): #Row 1
tags.td("random", rowspan="5")
tags.td("random", "%", rowspan="5", style="font-size:small;text-align:center;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px;background-color:#66FF66")
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr(): # Row 2 (only cols 3 and 4)
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr(): # Row 3
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr(): # Row 4
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
with tags.tr(): # Row 5
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
tags.td("1", style = "font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px")
HTML_TMP = "/tmp/demo.html"
MAIL_TMP = "/tmp/demo.txt"
# save it to a file
with open(HTML_TMP, "w") as f:
f.write(str(doc))
The resulting HTML and output are below (hit unhide, then run code snippet to see results):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>whatever</title>
</head>
<body><style>body{font-family:Helvetica}</style><style>h1{font-size:x-large}</style><style>h2{font-size:large}</style><style>table{border-collapse
:collapse}</style><style>th{font-size:small;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px;background-color:#DDD}</style><style>td{font-size:small;text-align:cen
ter;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px}</style>
<table>
<thead>
<th>Test</th>
<th>Pass%</th>
<th>random</th>
<th>Bugs / Notes</th>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td rowspan="5">random</td>
<td rowspan="5" style="font-size:small;text-align:center;border:1px solid gray;padding:4px;background-color:#66FF66">random%</td>
<td style="font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px">1</td>

<td style="font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px">1</td>

<td style="font-size:small;text-align:center;padding:4px">1</td>

</html>Note that you could do further tidy up by adding repeated code into a function and calling that, but I'm guessing that this is a placeholder code and you won't actually be adding exactly the same info in each cell
