Hi,

i have several questions about the TablePager-Class:

• is it possible to change the styling of the tables?
• • The default-style is blue

• • all other Tables are grey

Yeah, I see an interesting stylesheet comment there:

/** * Data table style * * Transparent table with suddle borders * and blue row-highlighting. */

It should be overridable with getTableClass(), but someone who can't spell "subtle" has hacked it up so that you can't, adding a hard-coded mw-datatable class.

Submit a core patch to gerrit to move the mw-datatable class to getTableClass(), like

function getTableClass() { return 'mw-datatable TablePager'; }

And remove the hard-coding from getStartBody(). Then you will be able to change the class, and use descendant selectors to style any part of the table.

• is it possible to change the sort-order in a sortable tablepager-table?
• • with "function getDefaultSort()" I can only sort in ascending order

You can use:

class MyTablePager extends TablePager { function __construct( IContextSource $context = null ) { parent::__construct( $context ); $this->mDefaultDirection = true; } }

• is there some more documentation than:

http://svn.wikimedia.org/doc/classTablePager.html ?

No.
