Hi all,
Trying to get psql to produce multiple table attributes in the <table> tag when psql is used with the -H switch.
eg
TABLEOPTIONS="-P border=5 -P tableattr=width=\"80%\""
psql $DATABASEHOST -U $DATABASEUSER -d $DATABASE -q -P footer -P title=Summary -H $TABLEOPTIONS
produces
...
<table border="5" width="80%">
...
As expected.
TABLEOPTIONS="-P border=5 -P tableattr=width=\"80%\" -P tableattr=bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\""
produces
...
<table border="5" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
...
Seems to hang on to the last.
And
TABLEOPTIONS="-P border=5 -P tableattr=\"width=\"80%\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\"\""
produces
...
<table border="5" "width="80%">
...
My quoting of the quotes is wrong but the point is that the quote to encapsulate the white space for the tablattr is placed into the HTML produced.
It maybe that you can only pass one table attribute or that I'm missing something.
I favour the latter.
Calls are from within a bash script.
Can anyone set me straight?
