Tabular data
* Sorting *
* Paging *
Tables are used throughout the application to display sets of information in an easily
comprehensible fashion and these tables share similar functionality for the most part.
CERS – Search tabular data (Sorting and Paging)
The column headings of the tables contain a title for each column. In most situations these
titles are clickable, such that when the User clicks on the title of a particular column the
information displayed in the table will be Sorted based on that column. The data in this
column could be text, numerical or date values and the table will be sorted alphabetically,
numerically or chronologically based on the type of data. Should the User click on the title a
second time, the order of the Sorting will be reversed.
In some situations the number of entities, represented by rows, is too great to be displayed in
a single page. As such, the number of entities to display in a table is limited to a configurable
maximum, initially set to 20 per page. In situations where the dataset exceeds this number,
the dataset is split into as many subsets as is required. These subsets are then displayed in
separate pages that are accessible to the User though the Paging control that is provided
