Description

On pages such as http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.application.core-functionality.html
where large tables are used the sidebar (containing the index of ZF class names) overlays the table, making parts of the table unreadable.

This is happening on Safari 3 for Mac, Firefox 3 for Mac, and IE7 Windows. I am sure most browsers are affected.

I'd upload a screenshot if I could work out how to

One quick solution could be to write a 3rd party transformation script (hosted by anyone anywhere):

example.com/ZFTableToList

<?

function get_page_and_convert_any_HTML_tables_into_list($URL_To_ZF_docs_page_to_transform) {
//pull page source

//for each tbl found in source

//convert each row into a list item

//for each cell data prepend column header name

return $string;
}

$output_html = get_page_and_convert_any_HTML_tables_into_list($URL_To_ZF_docs_page_to_transform)

echo $output_html;

?>

–
Then we can all just visit :

example.com/ZFTableToList?URL_To_ZF_docs_page_to_transform=http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.application.core-functionality.html

to be able to see the table's data.

any keen community memeber can do this, i guess. (I would have done if i had the time)

not sure about copyright though. ;o)

ok...further to the last comment.

Done.

If you are having trouble reading the tbl
use the html_table_to_html_list_converter service to make it more readable:
