I haven't even started on the API, but at a high level, you will be given a row value and a TableBuilder, and you render 0 or more rows that represent the value into the TableBuilder. In the simplest case, you render a single row with some columns, each containing one Cell that maps to a field in the row value. However, you can do any of the following: - Create "expandable rows" by rendering multiple rows to represent the row value and index all but the first row - Insert a group header by making the first row span all columns - Create an error row beneath the rendered row to display an error - Insert multiple Cells within a column I working on the fixed headers now, so I won't even begin work on TableBuilder until May, with a goal to finish by the end of June. -- -- http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors
