The Ring programming language version 1.8 book - Part 48 of 202

1. Ring Documentation, Release 1.8
50.15 HTML Tables
In this example we will learn how to generate HTML tables using the tablestart(), tableend(), rowstart(), rowend()
,headerstart(), headerend(), cellstart() and cellend() functions.
#!ring -cgi
Load "weblib.ring"
Import System.Web
Func Main
New Page
{
divstart([ :style = styledivcenter("400px","500px") ] )
style(styletable() + styletablerows("t01"))
tablestart([ :id = :t01 , :style = stylewidth("100%") ])
rowstart([])
headerstart([]) text("Number") headerend()
headerstart([]) text("square") headerend()
rowend()
for x = 1 to 10
rowstart([])
cellstart([]) text(x) cellend()
cellstart([]) text(x*x) cellend()
rowend()
next
tableend()
divend()
}

50.16 Gradient
In this example we will learn how to use the StyleGradient() function.
The function takes the style number as input (range from 1 to 60).
#!ring -cgi
Load "weblib.ring"
Import System.Web
Func Main
New Page
{
boxstart()
text("StyleGradient() Function")
boxend()
for x = 1 to 60
divstart([ :id = x , :align = "center" ,
:style = stylefloatleft() +
stylesize(string(100/60*6)+"%","50px") +
stylegradient(x) ])
h3(x)
divend()
next
}

50.17 Generating Pages using Objects
Instead of using functions/methods to generate HTML pages, we can use an object for each element in the page.
This choice means more beautiful code but slower.
The fastest method is to print HTML code directly, then using functions then using templates then using objects
(slower).
#!ring -cgi
Load "weblib.ring"
Import System.Web
Func Main
WebPage()
{
Title = "Using objects to create the Web Page content"
h1 { text("welcome") }
link
{
Title = "Google"
Link = "http://www.google.com"
}
div
{
id = "div1"
style = stylegradient(30) + stylesize("50%","50%")
text("Outer Div")
div
{
id = "div2"
color = "white"
backgroundcolor = "green"
width = "50%"
height = "50%"
marginleft = "5%"
margintop = "5%"
text("Inner Div")
}
}
div
{
id = "div3"
color = "black"
backgroundcolor = "silver"
width = "100%"
height = "100%"
text("Form")
form
{
method = "POST"
Action = "helloworld.ring"
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(24)

{
TD { WIDTH="10%" text("Name : " ) }

50.18 HtmlPage Class
Using this class we can create HTML documents without printing the output to the standard output
So instead of using the WebLib in Web Applications only
We can use it in Console/GUI/Mobile Applications too
Example:
load "stdlib.ring"
load "weblib.ring"
import System.Web
50.18. HtmlPage Class 447

8. Ring Documentation, Release 1.8
func main
mypage = new HtmlPage {
h1 { text("Customers Report") }
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(4)
TR
{
TD { WIDTH="10%" text("Customers Count : " ) }
TD { text (100) }
}
}
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(26)
TR
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(24)
TD { text("Name " ) }
TD { text("Age" ) }
TD { text("Country" ) }
TD { text("Job" ) }
TD { text("Company" ) }
}
for x = 1 to 100
TR
{
TD { text("Test" ) }
TD { text("30" ) }
TD { text("Egypt" ) }
TD { text("Sales" ) }
TD { text("Future" ) }
}
next
}
}
write("report.html",mypage.output())
50.19 Using Bootstrap Library using Functions
The next example uses the Bootstrap JavaScript Library when generating the HTML page.
#!ring -cgi
Load "weblib.ring"
Import System.Web
Func Main
new BootstrapPage {
divstart([ :class = "container" ])
divstart([ :class = "jumbotron" ])
h1("Bootstrap Page")
divend()

divstart([ :class = :row ])
divstart([ :class = "col-sm-4" ])
h3("Welcome to the Ring programming language")
p([ :text = "Using a scripting language is very fun!" ])
divend()
divstart([ :class = "col-sm-4" ])
h3("Welcome to the Ring programming language")
p([ :text = "using a scripting language is very fun!" ])
divend()
divstart([ :class = "col-sm-4" ])
h3("Welcome to the Ring programming language")
p([ :text = "using a scripting language is very fun!" ])
divend()
divend()
divend()
