Angularjs – ng-repeat add two row per repeat

angularjshtml-tableng-repeat

I am using ng-repeat to form the rows in a table. For each row I need to display some data that needs to span across all the cells of that row.

  <tr ng-repeat="cr in results.crs">
    <td>cell 1</td>
    <td>cell 2</td>
  </tr>

I want something like this-

  <tr ng-repeat="cr in results.crs">
    <td>cell 1</td>
    <td>cell 2</td>
    </tr >
      <td colspan=2>The Special Cell</td>
    <tr>
  </tr>

However ,ng-repeat doesn't allow two rows per repeat.I tried doing the following but doesn't work.

  <tr ng-repeat="cr in results.crs">
    <td>cell 1</td>
    <td>cell 2</td>
    </tr >
      <td>The Special Cell</td>
    <tr>
  </tr>

Is there a way to add two rows per repeat?

Also,can anyone suggest any alternative way to do it? I am using table structure since its easier to design and I have basic knowledge of HTML+CSS.

use

<tr ng-repeat-start="cr in results.crs">
  <td>cell 1</td>
  <td>cell 2</td>
</tr >
<tr ng-repeat-end>    
  <td>The Special Cell</td>
</tr>

Javascript – Add table row in jQuery

The approach you suggest is not guaranteed to give you the result you're looking for - what if you had a tbody for example:

<table id="myTable">
  <tbody>
    <tr>...</tr>
    <tr>...</tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

You would end up with the following:

<table id="myTable">
  <tbody>
    <tr>...</tr>
    <tr>...</tr>
  </tbody>
  <tr>...</tr>
</table>

I would therefore recommend this approach instead:

$('#myTable tr:last').after('<tr>...</tr><tr>...</tr>');

You can include anything within the after() method as long as it's valid HTML, including multiple rows as per the example above.

Update: Revisiting this answer following recent activity with this question. eyelidlessness makes a good comment that there will always be a tbody in the DOM; this is true, but only if there is at least one row. If you have no rows, there will be no tbody unless you have specified one yourself.

DaRKoN_ suggests appending to the tbody rather than adding content after the last tr. This gets around the issue of having no rows, but still isn't bulletproof as you could theoretically have multiple tbody elements and the row would get added to each of them.

Weighing everything up, I'm not sure there is a single one-line solution that accounts for every single possible scenario. You will need to make sure the jQuery code tallies with your markup.

I think the safest solution is probably to ensure your table always includes at least one tbody in your markup, even if it has no rows. On this basis, you can use the following which will work however many rows you have (and also account for multiple tbody elements):

$('#myTable > tbody:last-child').append('<tr>...</tr><tr>...</tr>');

Html – Word-wrap in an HTML table

The following works for me in Internet Explorer. Note the addition of the table-layout:fixed CSS attribute

td {
  border: 1px solid;
}

<table style="table-layout: fixed; width: 100%">
  <tr>
    <td style="word-wrap: break-word">
      LongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongLongWord
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
